Computer Programming

I'm confused with many computer programming. There are many languages such as delphi, VB, C, C++, Perl, etc. I'd like to study programming. What kind of languages must I learn? thanks

You're right, there are a lot of computer languages. Two of the most prominent ones are C++ and Java. Microsoft Windows relies heavily on C++ or "Visual C++".

Although not a programmer myself, I have worked in I.T. for some years now and have picked up the C++ syntax, mainly from using MS-DOS and JavaScript in web pages. Expect lots of curly braces "{" and conditional statements such as

Thank you doodles, How about assembly? I heard that it is important too though it is a low level programming language. I'm looking forward to learning Java then ^^

Sorry, don't know much about that. I just try to push the right buttons, I don't make them work!

Java is probably a good language to start with, though. It is a language made for the internet and computer networks on the whole. Enjoy!

I'd like to ask something about C. Must I learn C language first before learning C++? What's the different between C and C++?

Though most (almost every) C++ compilers are fully compliant with C syntax, you may treat C and C++ as two totally different language, so there is no need to learn C before you start working at C++.

As considering to choose a programming language, it really depends on what do you want. If you just like it and not plan to choose software development as your future career. Then I suggest yo

"What kind of programming language you are using is not important for a progammer."

Do you mean that programmer don't need to understand all the language? 1 or 2 is enough? I am going to take IT for my majoring in university. Thanks.

All the program language share some common theories and practices. For a programmer, you should be good at some basic courses such as data structure, operating system, etc, and also learn a program language very well, I suggest C++. If you are familiar with C++ and those basic courses, you won't find other languages difficult.

I think first u should learn 'C' Language, it would help you to build your logic as well as you will become familier with how to write computer programs. Once you find yourself comfortable with 'C' language you can easily learn other languages very fast.

For programming first thing is you should have good logic, and the second thing is programing language. You should not bother about synt
