Great beginner language (QBasic)
My school starts off beginners with a language called qbasic. It is solely a learning language. This is for people who have never coded before. It is very close to visual basic and you will learn basic coding skills. The language is not useful anymore but you learn useful coding skills. I highly recommend this for beginners. You can learn it within hours if you are already a good programmer.

You will learn such basic skills as

variable types
decision structures (if-then and case statements)
sub modules
functions
loops
formatting output
programming logic (math and stuff like that)
arrays
error catching
how to make code readable
how to document code
and more.


You can get qbasic from here (32 bit)

You can get qbasic for 64 bit here

Here is a great tutorial series you can follow to learn this language.

Still, use Visual Basic .NET .Much easier and takes hours to learn. Anyways Thanx.
I have to remark.

Qbasic is not a learning language, it is actually rather powerful, I still develop in it for fun.
