I''m just wondering what book on C or C++(or what ever other proggramming language) I should get to help me get started on programming, because I have next to no knowlegde on any programming language.

Any beginner''s C++ book should be good, but I would suggest that once you understand programming in general, read Bjourne Stroustrap''s (or however his last name is spelled) book, The C++ Programming Language.
