Learning to Program???

The book "Python Programming: an Introduction to Computer Science" sounds promising. Additionally, it's listed at only around 29 dollars at a well-known internet-bookstore and received good user-ratings there. I think Python is a very good language for starters for several reasons.

- First, it's not strongly typed, which makes it easier for beginners from my experiences (with people learning programming).

- Second it comes with a large library of functions and classes that make your life easier.

- Third it's platform-independent and free, so there's no limitation in any way. Your applications most likely will run on Linux, Mac and Windows without midifications.

- Fourth, it does not suffer from illnesses like PHP does that basically make you write bad code. It's not hacky, although it's a scripting-language.

You should definitely start with console-applications. You can later write GUI-apps with pyQt, wxPython or similar, but because GUI-program is very complex and often requires you to know object-oriented designs, it's very bad to try to start with GUIs.

I would strongly suggest taking at leat one intro class to programming, preferrably in VB, as it is the easiest language for most people to start with. If you can't afford to take a class, get a good, tutorial-driven book like "Simply VB.Net" by Deitel, and read through, completing each tutorial as you go. I say this because the best way to really learn to program is to actually start coding simple stuff, and work up from there. I have found that a combination of classes, reading, and online forums has been very effective in helping me to become a very proficient programmer. Good luck, and happy coding.

C or C++ is the answer 2 your question,of course,they are complex languages,and need a lot of hard work to master,but if u accomplish that,then u can learn any languages u want,cuz' it'll be a lot easier 4 u u understand.

For a programmer, getting to know a clean programming language is plenty, plenty extra handy than getting to know a clean spoken language. although, getting to know a programming language could nicely be perplexing with out being smart at programming already.

If you are a hands on "in person" type of learner I would check local area community colleges. The language that is easiest to start with is Visual Basic.

The easiest web language is PHP (php.net).

I would start with Java or C++, but these are very complex languages, dont know if you can master them on your own.

Good luck.

without video freecomputerbooks.com with video jimmyr.com/free_education/php here you get other resources regarding engineering,medicines othe education etc

do 'C' (computer language) first. it is v v v important also good for fresher.
