Books

First you need to learn C++ with:

"Sams Teach Yourself C++ in 21 Days"

and then learn OpenGL with the ultimate book:

"OpenGL Game Programming"

Make sure you know C++ very well first. And then after C++, you can either go right into OpenGL or into the Windows API and then OpenGL.

Good Luck.

Not true. You can use Opengl in Delphi, Java, VB and C also. I am probably missing some.

Python and probably Perl too =)

I just picked up the OpenGL Super Bible, I found that pretty good. I like books that border of reference material with short and sweet explanations...I found the SuperBible to be much better than the game series of books about OpenGL. But I learn better with concepts applied rather than applied concepts.

You can also find manuals on OpenGL as well as a lot of other links, utility programs and information on www.opengl.org.

G''luck!
