I am a beginner that is learning C++. I would like to now how everyone else learnt C++.

The best way is to buy a good book. Here's a thread C++ Books.

Also you could search internet anytime. Here are few links:
http://www.cplusplus.com/
http://cprogramming.com/

Don't forget to get a compiler and do the exercises.
You can find a lot of them in a sticky thread at the top of this forum. It's a nice collection to get started on almost all aspects of C++.

I wouldn't say how did you learn C++, because honestly majority if not everyone is still learning. I will be first to put my hand up I have been using C++ for almost 3 years know quite a bit but i still seem to learn something interesting quite often

Anyway the two links vishesh posted are good. I especially love the first one Helped me when i was starting off with C++

Also alot of people will be telling you to use Dev-CPP i would probably stick with Visual C++

ive learned it the hardway. from scratch i have to do intermediate programming modules in a day or two. (the basics are just inserted during research time) <- this is not a good idea

since its requird for work i cant do anything about it.

my advice is get a solid foundation of this language. (it language can get unsafe if you miss use it)

Same experience with me, which is veeeerrryy baadd...

I learned c++ by reading books and asking my friends weird questions lol.

Some advice about books: try to get a book that works on and develops one single program as it progresses, from basics to objects and whatever else..

It's better than books with hundreds of little shitty exercises, because (a) you learn faster, (b) its more incentive to go onto the next chapter.. coz you're working towards a goal, and not a bunch of useless compound interest calculators..

I have been "learning" for 6 years lol

A tad bitter, are we? There's a difference between learning a language and learning how to program. Most books are written as learning a language, where small exercises and programs that show a single feature are ideal. There are far fewer books that develop a single program across the chapters because that teaches how to program, and it's closer to reading a book to learn a martial art. It's not as effective of a teaching technique as you're suggesting.
