c, but then it is near identical to c++, so i recommend basic. and if u think basic is too hard, try visual basic first. (lol)

C++ is a proper hard core language to learn but once you have learnt it, you can create web applications as well as normal software.

i think you first have to think about what you will build with the languages.  if it is just web applications then use php but if it is software you will need c++ or java.

Ya I have learned basic, C, C++ and some Java and I have to say that I like C++/Java the most. C just seems to be harder than C++ to me. As far as basic, I would skip it all together. I liked basic because it was so easy but as far as being able to use it, I say go with C++/or Java.

i am lava literate but i would not recommend it as a cross over for c

hehe, you can so tell when people have self tought programming langauges, hench why i waited till i'm at uni.

programming has very little to do with the actually programming language, it's mostly about the breakdown of the problem, and putting it into sizable chunks, which you can code sperartly and then put them together.

if you ask a proffesional programer what langauges they know, they will just say all of them, it will take them 3 days to learn a syntax of new langauge, and then the process i desicribed before is the same for each language.

I have found Borland C++ Builder a smooth transition from object based programming (VCL) to ANSI C++ or Win32 API programming. The IDE does it all basically, but the program is very expensive.

I recommend it personally, but most people I know who use C++ to prefer Visual C++.

c is the foundation for all the programming languages.If you know c then you can catch up other languages in an easy way.C is powerful and its structure based,which makes it hard

hahaha thats a bit of an overstatment, i think it should be rephrased to "C has greatly influenced many other popular languages"

Check out Python if you get a chance.
