Take a look to the sidebar on the left. There's a link there that reads: "An introduction to C++". Try working through that first, and come back with questions.
Just to make it easier...

It's not a good idea to try to learn calculus without having learned algebra.

If you want to be in the software progamming field, I would suggest that you not only learn a programming language but also learn the programming concepts, like algorithms, structured and object oriented program design etc. In fact you got to learn the concepts first then you can apply those using any programming language. There are plenty of resources on the Internet.

While I agree to the above, I believe it is necessary to have a basic knowledge of some programming language before you have a chance of understanding design-patterns, object-orientedness and the likes properly.

I would suggest that you start by learning python first. It allows you to program in procedural or object oriented style, it has an extremely clean and simple syntax, and is wicked-easy to learn. There are several good tutorials for beginners. The python tutorial at www.python.org, and the "a byte of python" tutorial (google for it).

In learning python, you will quickly come to grips with most important programming topics, and you will have a quite easy time 'migrating' to c c++ or java.

>which can help you out in learning the language C/C++
First, there is no language called C/C++. There's C, and there's C++, but no C/C++. Life is much easier when you don't confuse the two. Second, I wouldn't recommend any site for learning either C or C++ that has void main right on the first page. Maybe you should learn before trying to teach.

Note that this is just after a cursory glance. I can only imagine the problems I would find if I spent some time reading that blog.

sorry to say but that website does not make for a good tutorial at all.

You don't give any kind of explanation about what is going on in your code.
