I would like to add that you should make sure to point out where they can find language and API references. In java, the API and language specification is at your fingertips online at java.sun.com... with C or C++, it's not quite as simple and easy to find reference documentation.
Whenever I am doing something in C or C++, that is my biggest problem... trying to find what I need. I usually turn to cplusplus.com, which usually has what I need, otherwise I google for it. If you have a set of references you use (online or in the form of books), list them and tell them what you use each reference for.
