Started C#
I started C#. I kinda wonder if the Visual Studio that comes with the development kit is a bit dumb. Because from what I've seen so far it looks like it's doing the coding for me. I want to learn how to type in the code so I get a better understanding of how coding works.

So far I'm about 1/3 of the way done with making a basic Picture Viewer.

Do you think I should get good at C# then move to Java, then move to C++?

Should I just stick with both?

Go directly to C++

C# Is a great language to start with, but its managed, Java is managed too, and it's a resource whore... C++ Is native, and its wayyyy more difficult. If you want to be amazing at coding, go directly into C++, because you'll learn a lot of stuff that you won't learn when you learn other languages. If that makes sense...

Too many of these threads. C++ isn't all advantages you know . There are legit reasons why managed code is so popular. Do what you want to do, you can change anytime you like really. If your final goal is C++ then start with C++.

You're not gonna learn how coding works, from C# or any other .NET scrap for that matter As the others on top of me said, go for C++. And trust us on that :P

Bollocks, you want to tell Microsoft that?

Do you say that what powers Visual Studio 2010 under-the-hood won't be able to teach you how to program?

There are so many people who say managed laguages are bad. But that's not true. The only managed language I hate is vb.net because it has such a weird syntax.

Java is the most used programming language out there. So if it sucks why do so many people use it?

I could go on but I think I'm clear.

I'm here - just no reason to post since 99% of these threads are just ... well garbage There's always email if you need something HD

If you start with C# you ill learn java/c++ faster...
But if you go for c++ you can make hacks...(Im just saying this, cause its the only language that dont make me bored) VB make me bored cause almost everything is just desktop programs, and i have no more ideas..C# same shiit...but C++ i can ever do new hacks get new addies etc..(So COOOOOL)

Yeaaaaah let's all learn c++ cos you can hack with it! That's the only reason I got into programming.

C#, C++, and Java are all really similar in syntax. In all the programming books I've read, one of the first things it always says is how once you learn one of these languages, you've learned 90% of the other ones as well because the syntax is so similar. Each one has it's strong points, though. If I were you, I'd learn C++ first because you really get down to the dirt with it. Then I'd move to C#. You can import your low-level C++ code in C#, so the two work pretty well together. Assuming you want to program for Windows systems, learn C++, then move to C#. Java is good for programming for different types of systems, but most people like Windows, so who the hell cares?

Edit: You can write hacks with C#. You can do it with Java too, it's just ten times more complicated.
