261555 2004-08-14 04:29:00 What programming language should i learn, Visual Basic 6, Visual C++ 6 or Delphi????? Codex (3761)
261556 2004-08-14 04:45:00 If you learn C, C++

there are a lot of other programs you can get right up to speed with, without any trouble,
Like Javascript , java, PHP, they are all different but easier to learn if you know C

261557 2004-08-14 04:51:00 Well i have an old copy of C++ so whats the difference between C++ and C?? Codex (3761)
261558 2004-08-14 05:06:00 why do you want to learn a programming language and what will you be using it for? Hobby or work or web pages etc? andrew93 (249)
261559 2004-08-14 05:21:00 Well to tell you the truth i'm only 15 this year so i wanted to learn as a hobby and to make web pages. I'm alright with visual basic, and i know a little basic as well, but even though i'm only 15 doesnt mean i can't make an early start :D Codex (3761)
261560 2004-08-14 06:00:00 You could say C++ is a upgrade of C, and uses "classes" to save on code duplication

if you want to you download a C/C++ from
www.bloodshed.net and even join a Email list, while you are learning.

Did you wish to study by yourself or did it from say a correspondence school?

Sometimes with self taught you learn the easy parts and sweep the hard parts under the carpet, so to speak.

261561 2004-08-14 06:13:00 i'm 4th form i dont know if i can do it at school or not :( i know what you mean though, if you learn it by yourself you skip the hardparts, i'll talk to my teachers and see if i can Codex (3761)
261562 2004-08-14 06:16:00 also, which is better to learn C/C++ or Delphi, what will i get the most out of? Codex (3761)
261563 2004-08-14 06:21:00 Definately learn C++ it will give you a very good grounding for the other languages. Most polytechs will offer courses and there are heaps of good books on it. Sb0h (3744)
261564 2004-08-14 06:26:00 Well, if you want to make web pages I wouldn't look at those languages first .

I'd suggest C# or VB . NET, prol vb . net seeming you've done some vb .

You're other options would be php or java .
