Programing!?!?!

Hi,

First decide if you want to learn compiled languages over interpreted. I like Java because it is robust, it is type safe, doesn't have pointers and because of that, you can't address memory locations and screw things around / poke around where you should not be poking around.

Java can be fun to learn and it has automatic memory collection. You can do a lot of web development with it and you do not need to know about the Common Gateway Interface to do it.

You can probably program C++ because it is used everywhere and the editors that are available for it are very GUI oriented, you can probably get to do a lot of code that can be run on any platform, if you find the right compiler for it.

C++ is my favorite because the code just plain makes sense to me so there you have it, or if you want to be more up to date, use C# which is like C++ and Java mixed together and has all the new tools created by Microsoft.

These tools start with the .NET SDKs but it goes further than that, I am talking about the IDE code editors, like Visual Studio 2010 and the Expression line of graphical editors. enjoy Programming.
