Can anyone point me towards a tutorial teaching about developing with OpenGL in C++?

I've looked around myself, but everything I've seen was either too complex, or simply seemed really old.

My schooling covered the basics up to and including pointers, designing our own linked lists, and other similar stuff. My problem is that we always only output to the prompt window, never did we do *any* visual stuff.

So I guess I really need two things.
1. Creating windows with buttons and other GUI displays for simple applications.
2. Moving more towards game development using OpenGL.

I really appreciate any input on this. For some reason, I'm having a hard time Googling something useful.
 
Generally the things you want to learn are some of the more complicated parts of C++ coding. It's extremely difficult, although possible, to teach yourself this kind of code. I would highly recommend seeing what a local university or tech school has to offer for C++ instruction.

This is generally what most people would say, so that is why you don't find many online tutorials.
