While I'm typing, I might as well ask. Can you recommend any online tutorials that do a good job of explaining the parts of the language that go beyond syntax? (which, at this point, is the only thing that I really know well).
I enjoy reading these books:

They're free online but you can buy hard copies also. They're pretty old but understanding the first book will give you a deep understanding of C++. The second one talks mostly about the STL so isn't really relevant to FRC.
