What programming language should I learn first?

I have studied VB.net and previous versions of VB, but would like to really get into it. Any advice?

What programming language should I learn first?
Yes, C++ is the perfect starter language. Once you learn C++ syntax it will be easy to learn the ins and outs of other languages. C++ is also a good starter language because it teaches you how to work with memory and how memory is allocated.





The Engineering Departments at most colleges require C++ now.
Reply:Learn assembly language first. While it can be difficult doing anything "useful" in assembly, the principles and techniques you learn will forever influence how you program in your second (or third or hundredth) language. You will learn about what the computer is doing behind the scenes and will be a better programmer because of it. You don't need much assembler, just one class would do. If you are a serious programmer (rather than just a hobbyist) then assembly language will provide you with a foundation to build professional quality programs.
Reply:I recommend you to learn C because many languages are based on C and you will have no problem learning new languages if you know C.
Reply:C++. the world is object oriented now.
Reply:If you want a career in programming, learn C.





The adherents of the "sexier" languages will all talk about how "their" language is better, but the HUGE majority of software being produced in the world today is being written in C. Your car has a couple dozen computers in it, and not a single line of the code running on them has been written in Java, C++, C# and the like. Same for barcode scanners in your grocery store, and almost any other non-PC environment around.





The embedded world is slowly warming to C++, but it will take a long time before it overtakes C.
