C++: How does it work?

So, this is going to seem kinda half-baked, but I want to learn C++. Does anyone have a good way to learn how to program in it?

Take note that I have absolutely no programming experience. If this is too much for a beginner, can you recommend better languages for beginners?

    C++ should be the first language you learn. Learn it from this book: http://t2.hhg.to/teach_yourself_cpp_in_21_days.pdf

    You won't learn it here in Y!A. Instead you should learn it by doing C++ programming while following a good textbook. there are too many to list, and some of the are actually good. Search online for reviews. Don't be afraid to spend money on books. And actually type every program into the computer. If you get a book with a CD of all the example programs, you are doing yourself a disservice.
