Hey guys (and girls), so I want to start learning programing, but I have a few questions that I hope you can answer. They're pretty basic, but answers would be great.
Where to start, what to pick?
Obviously, the most popular programing languages are C, C# and C++, but which one should a newbie pick? I know that they have their own similarities and differences, but I guess it's all the same when you're just starting. So, which one is the best for newbie?
Where to pick up info?
What's the best place to learn on your own? I know that the Internet is a place full of info, but that's the problem, too many options and sources. Is there anything specific I should read? Any books or websites you could point me to?
Learning exercises?
This is a bit early to start thinking about, but this may be useful anyway, could you give me some advice on how to learn faster, memorize the basics and just help me in my learning process?
Hello,
please sorry for my bad english
I'm learn C++ and i buy a book to learn it, i think C++ is good for a newbie and for Pro's
I read this book:
but, it's german.
If you want a english book, is that perfect:
That's from the developer of C++!
Sorry, but I can't speak German, so your post is pretty much useless from my perspective. Also, I only ask because I want to get answers from people with experience, not the Internet and random dry facts without an opinion.
I'd start with Java, because you have to use classes in Java, helpfull for learning OOP(good style).
It's syntax is also C like.
But I'm also a beginner, maybe other languages would be better. I think if you don't give up any language will do it. ^^
I suggest to buy a book, can't give suggests because I only own a few german books.

It's your decision which language you want to learn, every language
is just a "tool" to reach your target.

Like you said, it's pretty much the same if you don't know any other language.

It's better to learn from books, the internet has many tutorials,
but most of them contain many mistakes, and don't teach you
a "good coding style".

Thank you for your time,
TheConArtist
A good way to memorize the stuff is to think about something, and
try to realize that in your chosen language.
(some mathematical tasks, or automate some stuff on your pc, just think about something )
Thanks guys, I guess I'll go with the most used language - C++ and hit the library and local book stores tomorrow. Tho the discussion isn't done, feel free to express your opinion or give me any other useful pointers.
So Con is joining the programming game, eh? Good call!
I also support your decision to get into C++ first. C++ was the first major programming language I learned and in retrospective I'm quite happy about it. Once you got the basics straight (which might take some time), you can basically learn any other programming language quite easily, especially the ones that are influenced by C/C++ which happen to be quite a lot.
Should you stumble across any major problems, feel free to ask me for help at any time.
Okay, I've got a book on C++, now I need a compiler, any tips?
VS, just because it's awesome
Also if you're going to learn C++, check this guy out on youtube
He has some of the best videos on C++ on the inetz.
As to language suggestions, I'd say C#/C++. C# is great and very user-friendly, and even though some guys say C# has its limitations ( such as the inability to inject ) even that can be done with a workaround, so don't dismiss C# just yet ;p !

Stop Leeching, Start Learning 02/16/2008 - Metin2 - 6 Replies Just wondering, maybe we should start a learning/teaching thread for people to post tutorials or request explanations on how things work etc.
I, for one, would be very interested on how Gex001 makes his teleporters, hack packs, and so on..
