Grav... are you a fan of Group X?

I don't know what to tell you about how to start. I learned BASIC, Turbo Pascal, and Turbo Assembler by reading the manuals, but thats some pretty dry, boring reading and doesn't work well for most people.

I got started on C++ by using those tutorials, here is a link to a good one.

No problem

People who are totaly new to Programming should learn HTML or VB. I think it is healty

qwerty12345 · Posted 2003-03-19, 05:22 AM in reply to qwerty12345's post "i dun get it"

html lol?????? thats not even a programming language and plus there isnt any logic thinking in it really..... vb would be better or basic

I've got news for you, Acer, HTML is not a programming language, it's a markup language. The defining charactoristic of a programming language is that it describes a proccess. HTML doesn't describe a proccess, it describes a rendered webpage. Javascript, on the other hand does qualify as a programming language.

I know it isnt a language, I never said it was. I said people new to programming should learn it. Its basic and helps in understanding concept IMHO.

ehh...html doesn't really help understanding any programming concepts. This is a pretty old language, but imho i suggest for complete new programmers to learn qBasic...forget vb or ne of the windows oriented languages cause that just makes it harder to grab the concept of the basics which is what you should really focus on before you move into windows programming or whatever it is you want to do.

Heres my knowledge list, this is how i learned, and this is how a became a great programmer.

Now it is very important for me to say, that programming is 1/4 reading a book, and 3/4 personal experimentation. Also, you gotta kinda have a love for watching complex things work. This should yield a good programmer.

List of things to learn, in order, and how much time you should spend with each one:

1) Qbasic: 1-2 years
Take this time to learn the basics of programming,
and graphics. Try to write a small game.

2) VB and C++: 2-3 years
Here you will start to get into the hardcore of what
its like to be a programmer. Not for malicious use,
but do try to write virii, and trojans for your personal
learning.

3) Assembler and Java and HTML: 2 years
By now you should be able to figure out what to
do with these here. Write something complex...

4) Whatever you want after this, by now you should have a very strong understanding of programming concepts, and any other language you learn should immediately start flowing from your fingertips.

It came with MSDOS 5.0-6.22. Like the versions of BASIC that came with DOS before, it was an interpretter-only program, meaning that you had to have QBASIC to run your QBASIC programs. In reality, however, QBASIC pre-compiled your program unlike previous versions of BASIC, resulting in much improved performance. IIRC, QBASIC was a stripped down version of QuickBASIC, which included exe compilation.

I see, yeah I wanted to know what it is and see if I should learn it, but there is no reason for me now.

qwerty12345 · Posted 2003-03-24, 03:09 PM in reply to qwerty12345's post "i dun get it"

it's a simple, and nice language to learn 1st for a feel of programming.

qwerty12345 · Posted 2003-03-26, 04:25 PM in reply to qwerty12345's post "i dun get it"

I would have to say out of all the languages I have learned or attempted to. VB is the easiet.
