CodeCademy Learn C++
CodeCademy Learn OOP C++
The Complete C++ Developer Course (Udemy)
Learn Multithreading With Modern C++ (Udemy)

The courses were all quite good, and I was happy that I completed them in the order written here.

It seemed like the more rigid learning style of CodeCademy enforced learning the basics, while the more loosely controlled learning style of Udemy, worked better when I had some basic understanding of what could and could not be done.

Hope to complete even more courses in the near future, to learn even more about C++, and programming in general.
