I just want to point out that Stroustrup's A Tour Of C++ is an excellent quick guide and it does include C++11 features.

Please update the section on storage classes. Auto is no longer a storage class, but a keyword for automatic type deduction. Also, register has recently been deprecated as well, if I remember correctly.

Does this guide have anything about references? Didn't find anything about that, but maybe I missed it, I think its a pretty important topic to cover. Also didn't see anything about the different types of constructors.

This guide is so primitive that it cannot be called useful. It can possibly be harmful, though, to those who don't know the language well and use this guide as a sole source of information.

> C++ is a superset of C, and that virtually any legal C program is a legal C++ program.
This is not true. One example, void* pointers are not automatically converted to "narrower" types in C++ as they are in C.

This looks more like an exam review study guide than an attempt to teach the language.

This is kind of ... crappy. Sorry.
It might have been semi-useful in 2004 or so, but now...woefully outdated and inadequate to get anyone up-to-speed. I'd say it's actually harmful.

Call me nitpicky, but you lost me at `Box Box1;`
Instance names should be lowercase, for God's sake.
