>>C++ and object oriented programming with numerical
>>simulation in mind.

You should learn the language for what it is before trying
to bend it to do what you want.  I'ld suggest leafing through
"C++ Primer" by Stan Lippman (get the 2nd edition), and then
write yourself a few useful non-numerical programs.  Then
read Chapters 11, 12, 13 of "The C++ programming language"
by Bjarne Stroustrup (2nd edition).  

Then start solving the problems you really want to solve.  After your
first prototype, leaf through "Advanced C++" by James Coplien to
remind yourself that you still have a lot to learn :-)
