Want to learn programming

July 31st, 2016

Yeah, I’m pretty sure that i want to go to college for CS and what not. But i have no idea which language i should start with anyone have any suggestions?
Answer #1
This is the best way to become a programmer, and thats why im so good look at this:
1. HTML, CSS, Javascript – learn very well its very easy.
2. Python – learn all the syntax and then Tkinter. 3. C++ – attempt C++, you most likely won’t be able to do it but if you do just learn basic syntax.
4. PHP – learn the full language and all there is to know.
5. C++ – learn as much as you need.
6. Java – Will be a breeze.

+1.
but you need not learn css and javascript(not that important if you want to concentrate on software developing).
Also, before learning C++, learn perl.
Answer #3
but learning these put some slack on the user
Answer #4
You better start with C++, after mastering C++ language, you can learn everything.
Answer #5

No. Starting to learn proggraming from c++ can be really boring, tough and also dangeroues.. Start from simple to learn-yet-powerfull language like html, python, perl..
go in this order:
1. html
2. Python
3. Perl
5. C
6. C++
Answer #6
how about for visual basic?
Answer #7
no, not visual baisc its lame
Answer #8
I started with turbopascal in school, hard at teh beginning but easy syntax…
then learned html css and javascript on my own easy like a charm… once you’re introduced to JS, visualbasic is the next step
Answer #9
hehehe, they forgot oracle hehe
Answer #10
If you want to be a web developer you’ll want to know html, php, javascript, Java.
If you want to program Windows Operating Systems you’ll want to know C++. To do anything significant you will need C++ and there’s no point wasting time learning things before C++.

say this to an experianced programmer and more likely he/she may either slap your face or flame at you or maybe both….Sticking with the ‘C’ family from the beginning is a very bad habit.
Answer #12
Well, seems like all these people are getting ahead of themselves. First you’re going to need something to build. What do you want to build? Rich web applications? Desktop PC helper applications? Web sites?
Whichever route you take you will probably want to use Video tutorials.
Here is a bad ass site with some great video tutorials.

You might be interested in the cpp directory, which will teach you C++.
Don’t bother with HTML, you will pick that up on your way through your Computer Science degree. Its extremely easy, and there is little money in it because of the vast competition in the field, basically everyone and their dog knows HTML. Which is why they think they can be freelance Web Designers. Most of which don’t know anything about real web development.
Anyway, touchy subject there for me. Ask yourself what you want to build, then go from there.

Yeah You are right, kind of a touchy subject. Thanx your reply clears the air. what do you syggest for some one who want to go into rich web development, and then still needs to learn application deveopment bcos there is an ever decreasing gap btw the two nowadays and will probably integrated tightly in the future.
I am soooo confused myself…
P.S How does one know which learning materials to combine e.g java and c++ or C++ and perl or PHP and VBscript???
Answer #14
I personally started with java syntax, learned some java, learned a lil php, fumbled around in c++, then learned some more java.

Answer #16
: To make rich web applications you can use multiple things, but for beginning you should definitely look into Python, it is one of the easiest. Look into PHP and Delphi as well. PHP is one of the fastest growing out there, and I highly recommend learning it.
Really combining is just finding out which works best together, and which you know. Of course to get anything done right you are going to want to know what you’re goal is. Start learning PHP though, if you have something you want done, most likely PHP can do it.
Answer #17
Learn any of the three Ps and then any other language will be easy:
Python – Dont use tkinter for GUI interfaces, its old and slow and buggy, use pyGTK+ instead.
or
PHP – with MySQL too seeing as PHP isnt much without it.
or Perl – needs *nix to show its true potential.

but tkinter is the easeist
Answer #19
I 1st learned some basic java syntax but never really made any applications
theni was learning c++ a few years ago and made a bunch of applications,
then I moved onto java and found it much easiser.
I find Java the easiest language (out of the two)
I used a book to teach myself java, its called:
Title: How To Program Using Java
Author: Tony Jenkins & Graham Hardman
ISBN: 1-4039-1223-8
This book is absoluley brilliant at intorducing you to the concepts of java, once you have read this book and completed the excercises (dont worry they are not that intimadating) you will be competent enough to proceed onto learning more complex eliments of the language yourself.
Note: I have not learned any other language so i can only give advice on what I know
Answer #20
To cut it short.
You can start with any language that you want.
But if you start with C and get good grounding, other procedural language becomes easy.
Then after C learn C++ and get good grounding particularly on OOP. After that other object oriented programming languages becomes easy.
Then learn java for cross platform applications. Java is the current trend right now because of it’s portabilty.
After all of these you can master any other language you choose, at a fast pace. And you also have both a low level and high level understanding of programs in you arsenal.
Then learn HTML, PHP, *script, PERL, *insert other languages here* in a matter of weeks (even days) :LOL:
The learning curve is quite steep if you do it this way. But if you like challenges and can understand complex ideas pretty easily this is the way to go.
However if you are not up for it, settle with learning VBasic first then.
P.S. When I say good grounding I meant that you grasp and understand the concepts pretty well. It’s not neccessary that you built tons of applications in it.
Answer #21
Start with pascal and go to delphi after the basics.. remember !
Answer #22
I know all, i programmed my own OS on two other PC’s and i am good at everything,, websites, software, u name it.. i’ve done it and done it well. i went to collage to learn it all and others stuff i picked up after woods, i am very advancedi n all
