description: Title says it all by this list there tons of programming language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming_languages But what are the main most usefull ones to learn? So far I think the main and most used ones are C# C++ Java Visual Basic (please no flaming or no first learn this before you do this its easy for beginners its just a question please =])

description: What are your intentions? I've found PHP is a very good way to get started. Of course you need a web development background though. I'm in a C++ university class and I honestly don't pay attention but am passing the class with flying colours. I sit on my laptop all class and so far I've walked into the labs, ignored the instruction just working on the assignment and finished everything no problem. Everything transfers over from PHP. Only a few more details that make C++ a little harder.

description: it all depends what you wanna do Learn the ideas of algorithms ? ( basic ) Learn fundamental ideas (ex. arrays) ( basic, php, java ) Learn procedural based ? (C language) Learn object oriented ? (C++, php, and vb.net, java, c#) Learn syntax ? (java, c++) Learn performance ? (c++) Learn how actual programs work ? (depends) Learn the lower levels (c++, asm) Client applications? (c++, vb[.net], c#, java) Web applications? (php, asp, java) You haven't outlined what you do and do not know. You can just say im going to "learn programming" because theres so many levels to each language and why. Nearly every language can do some form of the other, but it all depends on how and why you want to do it.

Well Never knew there were levels of programming but thats why I want to learn i just some are easier then others, But I want to write up codes and make something out of nothing I mean should I just go straight to what my gaol is (c++) or do you guys think I should start small (java) to see if I get the conecpt and get the hang of it I would like to write up applications but maybe do some java work since I noticed java comes in handy and especially stuff for like my phone uses all java So seems like c++ and java is what am probably going to go for PS thanks for replying

description: andr3w282 wrote on Sun, 01 March 2009 15:46 Learn fundamental ideas (ex. arrays) ( basic, php, java ) I guess this would have been a better way to learn it. PHP provided me with the fundamental knowledge. Sure there are a lot of differences with C++ but I know enough to easily get started. PHP is good because it is very easy to learn and the error reporting is fairly detailed.

If you want to do web development, go learn PHP, HTML and JavaScript as they are the most widely used for web development. I agree to this completely, however it also depends on his experience and ability to problem solve and have patience ( in no way am i calling ssnipe stupid, dumb or anything of the like ) if hes going to self teach himself. To learn something like c++ can be extremely overwhelming unless he takes the absolute baby steps, which is where much easier languages like VB and basic scripting help you learn the principles without having to worry about the behind the scenes stuff. When you really grasp most of the concepts is when you should be concerned about quality and performance which c++ is for. IDK i still recommend a language like VB to fiddle around with to attempt simple, basic programs. Work on if structures, loops, arrays and user input by doing small simple applications ( like asking a user to enter values then manipulate those values ). Then move in to studying how memory works and how the level of programming languages work. After studying how memory works and the CPU id definately suggest doing a SMALL little bit of ASM, it'll help grasp the ideas of memory accessing and whats actually performed on the lower level. Following this would definately jump into c++ and work with pointers and object oriented.

description: AFAIK about python it is a language independant of operating system. I mean with that that it will work easily on both Windows and Unix/Linux (if im right) About the way to get to C++ programming: I would suggest doing PHP and than moving to C++. My story : I started at school with making webpages (HTML/CSS) and in my spare time tried some PHP beside it. Very easy to learn actually (Now we also do it at school too and it is really easy, that i made my exam flawless (11/10 points)) Just when i started with PHP at school i imideately started at C++ because PHP was already to easy for me (but that's me ) and now im already trying to write scripts.dll

description: Since we're going into stories, I'll show mine I started with QBASIC as Freshman in High School. I played with some VB6 during that time, but never really got into major GUI projects..I then went through the follow cycles: 1. MSL 2. C++ (Managed) 3. C# 4. C++ (Native) 5. Vb.Net My primary language is C# because it's fast and easy and I enjoy it. That's really all you need to do; Find a language you enjoy and stick with it. This is my little "secret" that I use when deciding what language to use a project because I still use C#, Vb.Net, and C++ (A lot, but not enough for full-blown apps): Toggle Spoiler Graphical User Interfaces are coded in Vb.Net. This includes websites as that's a GUI itself. Console/Server-type applications are coded in C#.NET Any Win32 work is coded in C++.

description: I pretty much only know c++. And not really *that* good with it. The thing with programming is that once you've "mastered" a complex enough language (like c++) it's relatively easy to learn more as the basic idea is the same. All you need is a tutorial or two and you can start working on stuff. C++ isn't the easiest language to start with, I'm told, however it's not really that hard + it's widely used and can do lots and lots of stuff.

description: Why do people keep playing down a language because its slow and bloated? He wants to learn the FUNDAMENTALS of programming, basic algorithms and how you actually do stuff in a sequencial way . Hes not trying to make a super leet program, hes trying to learn the basics. Its rare to have someone just jump straight into c++ and begin doing a GUI using pointers and properly doing memory allocation. TBH if you dont know anything about loops, arrays, variable types and what not your going to have one bitch of a time with c++

I can now manage C++ but I would prefer not to write in it.

Most tutorials for C++ demonstrate all those topics in very simplistic terms.

description: Sorry for long bump, some java programmers I was talking to was saying start slow write up some small scripts and batch and wel start off small, while others say jump right into (which I will in summer time no time for it now) well let me ask this, is it kind alike school, where you can start of small but dont matter cause its all new? what I mean is even if i do write and learn small crap that lets say is nothing like lets say c++ but it gives me the feel of learning it just how moving a fake ps2 steering wheel gives u a feel of driving even tho its nothing related to real driving
