A good programming language for starters?
Posted: Thu Jul 08, 2010 4:06 pm
For a while I've been interested in programming, and I've learnt most of the things I know about it reading things on the internet. However, since this is my last year at high school and I'll be going to university next year, I thought that it was time to take a programming course to finally get a degree and officially get into the world of programming. There are courses starting next month and in March next year, and I was considering starting next month, but the thing is that I don't know what programming language to start with.
I have a friend who told me that Visual Basic was great because of it's simplicity, and then I could move to other language. But the thing is that I can't make up my mind because I'm interested in all existing programming languages, especially PHP and Java. So I thought that I could come here and as you guys and gals, since I know that the EGB is full of geeks :3
Considering that I don't know much about programming, what programming language should I start studying?
