    You can start learning C++ with these video tutorials:

    the easiest programming language i tried was visual basic.net(vb.net2005&2008)

    it was the easiest but the exe files need the .netframework

    visual basic6

    the form it makes is too old

    java(netbeans) wasn't bad but needs high ram to work with it

    <HTML>it is the basic programming language for making websites and u can use alot of other programming languages with it as javascript and php and alot more

    those are all i know

    u just choose

    Decide the language you want to learn, buy a beginners book that comes with software and go through it. You can get them for quite cheap if you look carefully - try places like charity book shops or if you want new then abebooks

    If you want to learn programming by yourself then you must have ebooks, tutorials on that specific programming language.

    You can start learning c/c++

    You can collect a huge number of ebooks in the site: www.flazx.com
