i've been reading some random tutorials on win32 api and the stl.. to tell you guys the truth, it's the most confusing thing i have ever tried to learn in c++... can any give me some references for tutorials/books that teach the win32 api and/or stl well?

These are distinct things. Win32 API is platform-specific, STL is platform-neutral.

"The C++ Programming Language" by Bjarne Stroustrup is a good start for STL.

I believe the second volume of "Thinking in C++" by Bruce Eckel goes over the STL and I have heard this book is highly recommended. In any case, you can get both books for free from this website:
