If you've never done object oriented programming, maybe start with C#/Visual Basic. It also depends on what you want to use it for.

 

So I've been told so thats why I'm wondering what I should start with instead!!!

And at jesuschristmonkeyballs could you reccomend any sites with good tutorials for those?

 

Start with something simpler.. I would recomend Python or Actionscript to get the basics of programming.. maybe even Javascript, since it's something easy to test

 

Well I would recommend finding a .pdf book for VB somewhere on the net. Can't say where, but you wouldn't have to look too hard.

The extremely cool thing is Microsoft offers express editions of visual studio 2008 & SQL for free! Most of the functionality is there.

Then as you work through your code and have a specific problem, you can google for samples and there are tons of helpful forums and coders who have already posted what you need or are willing to help out.

 

You could start with c++, but you should only see object-oriented part of c++ after a long time you already know how to program with stament, to be more simple you should see C ,but you don't need to become just see it and try to understand or if you don't want start with C try some like Python (and other things that CockroachMan wrote).The best thing is to try with something simple because all languages like c# ,java and c++ they have the easy part that almost all languages have and they have too the object-oriented part that is little complicated, and is even more complicated if you don't know the other part soo welll.(Phyton is object-oriented too but i heard it's an easy language)
Learning Java it can be more easy than c++, because in c++ you need to create the objects and destroy them, but in Java it's easy to create and you don't need to destroy them ,Java does this for you.
This is a C tutorial, it explains a lot of things, it's really good.

And always remember, the best way to learn is with practice.

 

I started with VB and tutorials on youtube and i worked my self up to c# and ive been programing for about 2-3 months and ive made some nice stuff i use everyday (EG: web browser notepad office applications cd tray opener etc)

id start with vb and work up like i did im pro-ish in vb and just starting with c# and c++ well i suck with c++ but ive made some stuff

remember to be a good programmer you must train like football you train to get better or in programing ways you must train by making programs over and over
i try to remember the code by making the program one or twice a day or even more
