zombie0hour Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 Everyone starts somewhere! Where did your humble beginnings as a programmer start? The first language I ever learned was C++. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Flash! Actionscript at the time seemed like a good language to learn first. (I soon learned the day after I finished most learning that it was a terrible choice).After Flash, CSS. Then HTML. Then JavaScript (Still working on that one).

zombie0hour Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 Did you get a pirated, keygen, or cracked version of flash? Seems a bit expensive to start with it lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zombie0hour Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 QBasic use to be quite common :). You actually paid for flash? Are you insane! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LolWhen your dad owns a game company, you will get all Adobe products ;). I have Photoshop, Flash, Dreamweaver, and some other thing (forgot what it was). All are purchased versions.

zombie0hour Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 I'm amazed at how many people are voting C/C++. Those are some pretty hard languages to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homicidal Monkey Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 @Visual:> I'm amazed at how many people are voting C/C++. Those are some pretty hard languages to start with.C/C++ has the illusion that its hard because most professional programmers use it. In reality, C/C++ is easier to use than BASIC-based languages.

I found learning C/C++ to be much harder than learning BASIC dialects.That's only if you learned BASIC first.If you learned C++ first, it's easy, and BASIC-syntax programs are even easier; if you learn BASIC first, you may have abit harder time grasping C-syntax as a second language.

Lenton Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I learned a bit of flash actionscript then found eclipse and started learning sadscript. Then moved on to VB6, then decided to learn HTML. Found out that VB6 sucks so I learned a tiny bit of C++ then found out the engine was going to be written in Java so I may start learning that.

Xavi Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Learn HTML, that will take you no time at all. But as for a real programming language? C++. I'm learning it right now, it's a really nifty language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
