anyone have anybooks where i should start..
something light where i could catch on very quickly then move my wat up to the more difficult stuff i know it takes time and passion. please your advice would mean lots to me
I want learn video game programming where should i start.?
I've always found that the best way to learn anything is to create a project for yourself. I work as a game programmer now, and I got my start by creating simple little games and game modifications.
If you're absolutely new to computer programming, don't be afraid to do something basic at first. The first thing I ever made was a game in Flash, which is really not very programming-intensive whatsoever, but will expose you to basic programming concepts in a "fun" way, rather than the boring "Computer Science way." Try out http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Games/ for tutorials on making games using Flash.
For more hard-core stuff, you're going to want to learn C/C++/C#. This is difficult, so be prepared.
Any book rated highly on Amazon.com will help you out here, but still, just following a book can be quite boring. Again, its best to do a project with a definite goal in mind. A simple 2D tile-based game is a good goal for a newbie C# programmer - pick up a book which combines C# and DirectX, for example.
If you're feeling particularity motivated, you might try working with Ogre3D, a great free 3D engine which will let you make 3D games (ogre3d.com). Ogre is well documented and their examples are good, and if you are patient and work through them slowly they should make sense eventually.
Cheers and good luck!
Reply:U could go 2 a career center near u and they will tell u about a job u could get working with computer simulators. That helps with video game designs.

What is the best program to learn the Japanese language?
I have been very interested in the japanese language and culture within the past year. I want to be able to speak Japanese well, but I find it very hard to do so without anyone to actually speak with on a daily basis. Is there a program out there that is easy to understand, and help me learn on my own? I have bought a few in the past, but they are not helpful at all! They teach you how to say words and phrases, but I have no clue what the words or phrases are! Help!
What is the best program to learn the Japanese language?
there is http://japanesepod101.com which has free podcasts.
Reply:Its called Rosetta Stone. If you cant learn it from them - you cant learn!

Reply:Just go to Hawaii. You can hang out on Waikiki and learn Japanese just by listening to everybody on the beach (and on the street, in your hotel, in the restaurants, etc., etc.)
Reply:There is none. You cannot expect to learn a language from a computer program. Languages require a lot more effort than that.

Reply:I don't know if you have a college degree or not, but you can teach english in japan if you do. the best and only way to truly learn a language is to immerse yourself in it. teaching english is a good way to be able to live abroad.
Reply:Try TeLL me More by Auralog, it is much better than any other software. You can contact them and ask for a free demo CD at http://www.auralog.com/
Reply:This is what I did with satisfactory results. I bought cassette teaching tapes and put the player under my pillow at night, and played the tapes while I slept. This takes time. The only downside is that I can only speak Japanese while I sleep. I hope that you have better results.

Which is a better programming language to learn, C++ or Java, to find work in the financial industry?
Both... (you'll need them) and you'll gotta learn a lot of new languages that'll appear, the best thing is to learn the basics of programming, so you'll can learn any language in just a few days...
Which is a better programming language to learn, C++ or Java, to find work in the financial industry?
I guess you are tryint to enter the field through trading areas. Those need both quick and dirty programming for solving new problems, AND user friendlly interfaces.
You will find that its usefl to know Matlab and/or Mathematica.
Visual Basic IS needed (on spite of the previous poster laugh) in order to expand excel capabilities. I do that all the time and, although I ultimately reprogram what I did in VB, it provides a fast solution.
Reply:Both can REALLY come in handy. They're both a lot alike. And they're both cross-platform. I am not exactly sure what you mean by "financial industry," but it may depend on the company.
They may want to use VB or something. LoL! =). That makes me laugh, but some do.
Reply:i would tend to lean towards java, but as eveyone has said, once you have learnt the basics in one langauage, you can generally pick up things in other languages quickly. if you learn both well, then you are definiatly be at an advantage
Reply:I'd say Java, but that's more from a general sense than from a finance-specific sense - like the above poster said, it's best to just learn the basics since a lotta things carry over between languages - but you can learn the basics in any language. Java, being the more advanced of the two, probably has more forward-thinking features that newer languages will implement than the older C++. I know both and find Java a whole lot more useful, but the same basic principles apply to both.

What is a good website to learn about computer programing?
I'm trying to teach myself some programming skills for computers i have no certain language i want to learn i would perfer the easiest one to start with also i would like a website that has tutorials and so forth
thanks in advance
What is a good website to learn about computer programing?
For web programming, you need to learn HTML first, then likely CSS. A great site for tutorials on this is: http://www.w3schools.com
As for object oriented programming, there are a few to choose from when starting. The most common choices seem to be C++, Java and VB. All have thier merits and downfalls, but all are good learning tools (I would say Java personally). Once you learn one of these, the others are extremely simple to picj up as they have the same underlying comcepts.
Turorials:
Java: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/
C++: http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
VB: http://www.vbtutor.net/vbtutor.html
Once these are learned, stepping up to other languages such as C, C#, python, php, etc. should be no problem. Good luck!
Reply:For web programming languages - HTML, JavaScript, SQL tutorial http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/. Site has hundreds of articles on web design and development.
Reply:Visual basic 2005 is a really easy language if you have windows. http://msdn.microsoft.com/express/ will help you get started with an express edition and tutorials. Go to Visual C++ if you want to get more complex

HTML and CSS if you want web development then eventually ASP
http://www.csszengarden.com HTML %26amp; CSS

Reply:There is not one programming language out there. There are lots. Your could make an effort to understand how a language works, like Visual Basic, and the logic of it's infrastructure by practicing on MS Access. It was easy and fun for me to build a simple database and learn little by little the program's concepts which helped me a lot in understanding how a computer language works.
But thats just me. Another alternative (seems boring to me) is to buy some begginers books about a specific language and try to follow it's examples.

What programming was used to make MySpace and YouTube?
I'm curious to know what kind of programming was used to build MySpace and YouTube. Was Ajax/php involved?
I'm very interested in learning programming to make my own applications, but I don't have a clue where to begin. Any suggestions?
What programming was used to make MySpace and YouTube?
I have to agree with manuelriliz. For web development php is a very good choice. Of course, if you intend to do any such thing, knowledge of html and SQL syntax for interfacing with MySQL or other database knowledge is practically required.
For general purpose apps that are not web dependent, it would depend somewhat on what type of program you want to make.
I like Perl, but it's well suited to what I use it for.
I've used C++, VB, ObjectPAL, LISP, etc. all for certain purposes that they worked well for. JAVA is basically a replacement for C++ and is good for all-around general programming. Most gaming apps are still written in C++ and more recently in C#.
Reply:If you want to learn how to program, for god's sake don't use myspace as an example. It was designed by monkeys in Cold Fusion and they haven't been able to maintain it because the monkeys went off the deep end after being logged out for the 30th time in a single session.
YouTube is well written but written in Python. I wouldn't really recommend it.
Start with PHP. Pretty much every server supports it, it's easy, it's secure, it's fast. And there's lots of prebuilt packages for it.
Reply:If you are already a programmer, then I'd suggest starting with learning basic HTML / XHTML and PHP, and delay learning about AJAX. The reason is because the concepts of listeners and events in a very amorphous language like javascript are often difficult to grasp, even for experienced programmers.
I'd also suggest picking one browser to work with until you are able to fully understand browser incompatibilities. You can save yourself a lot of frustration by doing that.
If you are not a programmer at all, and are interested in getting to know it better. I'd suggest working with either perl or C. Those languages will acquaint you with basic programming constructs and patterns that will pay big dividends when working with a more modern web scripting language.

What should I learn to know about web designs and programming ?
I am a freelance journalist planning to start a web magazine. For this i need to learn web programming, but i have no idea about how to start ? I mean I dont know anything about basics of programming for the WEB. Even things like web server, FTP or any other terms are not known to me .
I basically want to focus on learning JOOMLA CMS for making my site because we want to use Ijoomla magazine component for it .
Please suggest how should a novice like me start learning the terms and tricks of web design ....
I would also appreciate if someone can tell me where in central india, I can find tutors for this...
Thanks in advance...
What should I learn to know about web designs and programming ?
Start in HTML web programming, then learn something about web design.
Reply:It takes years to master the skill sets needed to learn effective and robust web programming.
This is THE reason for the existence of "CMS" applications like Joomla. Joomla makes it easier for the non-programmer to manage dynamic content of a website.
I suggest get up and going with the CMS then look around for programmers when you want to refine or add features and functionality. You won't have any time to do journalism if you seek to master web programming which takes years
Reply:First of all programming and web design are apples and oranges. If you want to make web pages you need a MARKUP LANGUAGE. Markup languages are instructions that a web brouser uses to display info like text, images, and video. If you want a simple page like a blogg or something you can learn HTML (hypertext markup language) or XHTML. You can also learn JAVA. Another option if you dont want to spend a lot of time learning the language you can buy Frountpage for windows ( i think its under a new name now) or Dreamweaver. Thies applications alow you to make proffesional web pages just by simply pointing and clicking (like using Photoshop). If you want to go the learning rout get the book "the complete reference html %26amp;xhtml " by Thomas A. Powell and "Core Java" by Gary Cornell, Cay s. Horstmann. And as for the second part of your question Im an American I dont know jack about any other country.

In IE Explorer: Click on the "View"Tab, then select "Source" This gives you the uderlying HTML code for most any web page.

It ain't as pretty as a pro site, but it has the advantage of being easily maintained, and it does the job I need to do just fine. I pay Y! to give me more tools and no ads - "Your Mileage May Vary!"

You can use MS Word to do your HTML Scripting for you. One of its drawbacks is that the header on it is huge. It drowns the reader in "source" information that they don't need to be seeing, and that you may not want revealed about your computer, so you're going to have to edit it out. Another problem is it doesn't DO bullet lists very well. You may want to ***Download*** or buy a "What You see Is What You Get" (WYSIWYG) HTML editor. You don't have to be a code monkey like I am - you can do a web page without even seeing the underlying HTML.
Secret #3
One reason not to specify fonts styles is that the reader's browser may not have it, and the reader can often choose the font style s/he reads it with - it's a waste of time... Don't try to map out exactly to the pixel where things should go, most browsers simply ignore it and display it the way it "wants" to. META tags often help Search Engines Find you, be prepared to relentlessly promote your e-zine - But do it on the cheap until you get a feel for what to buy... In fact, do everything on the cheap side that you can!

A Seach Engine is your friend! there's alot of material on-line you can get for free. Don't buy "solutions" until you've tried to get somethng similar for free! Try places like Download.com

Don't use clashing colors that make your website unreadable. Patience is very short on the web, and you don't want your reader's trying hard to read your prose, because they'll quickly move on to the next site... Pls don't use red on green letters on a black background. Speaking of patience, another good example of what NOT to do can be found at Prince's (the singer) website.

Reply:Hi there...
Well I have done some of the online Sogang university courses.... but that was a few years ago.
When I started to learn Korean, my friends were opposed to me learning to read (stupid right?), but im so stubborn, I learnt it in one afternoon.
After that I would practice my reading with newspapers (not knowing what it meant of course, but I couldn navigate with a dictionary and a few peices of scrap paper)... would watch Korean drama series/movies without subtitles.
Just force yourself to be as alienated as possible while learning.
I find that if something is too easy, or if there is too much english to fall back on when it gets difficult, you dont actually remember it.

Reply:Have you tried the Sogang one?
It's what I started with when I had no other resources and helped me immensly. http://korean.sogang.ac.kr should be the address if it hasn't changed.
