So I learned how to use C++ and SDL, but I don't have any background knowledge of game programing and I don't know where to start in building a game from the ground up. can someone please point me to a good tutorial or send me the source code for a 2d game(yes, I know) so i can learn from it.

Well, since you are using SDL I would suggest looking at some of the demoes they have on their site:
http://www.libsdl.org/demos.php

Additionally, a quick google search popped up a ton of sites dedicated to SDL tutorials. Here is just the first one which looks promising (though a little difficult to navigate):
http://www.sdltutori...al-tic-tac-toe/

Also, stayscrisp has an excellent tutorials series on SDL in the DIC Game Programming Tutorials section.
