Yes, i know. That is why i am so worried. None of C makes any sense to me, because i am used to BASIC. Now, if you are done stating the obvious, then what is their purpose? I found a short description about what they are, and it said "The brackets '{}' mark the beginning and end of block code", or something like that. What is block code? I have been looking through some tutorials and what-not, and i am beginning to like the structure, a lot, but i still don't understand a couple of things.
Since i have both the Borland C++ Builder 4 Professional, and the Borland C++ Builder 4 Standard, i just installed pro, but standard came with a "Sam's Teach yourself Borland C++ in 5 days", so i am reading through that. Now,
I REALLY HATE SAMS TEACH YOURSELF TUTORIALS. They are what drove me away from C++ in the beginning. I got a "Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 days" book/tutorial, and it was CRAP. It didn't explain anything, not even the brackets. I will look through it some more when it get a chance, but i am starting to like that "Howstuffworks" article.
