Where to start from? - albastru31 - May 25, 2014
So I wanna become a programmer but I don't know where to start from. I'd like to learn how to build games (I know some C++) but I also wanna learn HTML CSS JavaScript to build websites and I don't know where to start from.
What are the best books/youtubers that teach any of those? And which is the best to start with?

Another - I don't know what to do so please tell what I should do - post.
If this is an example of your commitment and motivation then I recommend quitting now.

I'm already learning C++ and Java from thenewb*****, also at school and I know HTML pretty well, same CSS and a bit of JS ^_^
I'm just looking for useful websites, books, etc. because for example I've seen tutorials with many different programs such as construct 2 and wanna know which is the best if it could be called so

Now you want to know which is the best? You want us to form your own opinion?

Op, follow a good book and use this site as a reference: http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/ , along with any other sites you find.

g4143 is right... Again... I will begin to follow you dude. Almost each time I see one of your post you blow my mind ><"
Anyway ^^
There isn't "one" perfect language of prog.
HTML / CSS doesn't do the same than C / C++.
If I could make an advice, I will tell you to begin with a low lvl language (it's not the difficulty). It will help you for your futur as a programmer.
I personnaly start with C.
Then Web language (HTML 5 / CSS ==> Php and now GO (google new baby).
I will maybe begin C++ when I will have some time soon.
You don't have to do like me. If you just want to learn to make little "virus" XD with pretty interface learn VB.NET
Some language are easyer than other (for me). But you can't do the same things with all your language.
Ask yourself the question "what do I wanna make", "why do I learn programmation?"
If you want leave from that I would recommand you C / C++. It's, for me, a good start. But as g4143 say, it's my opinion.
It's maybe not the right one / the one that will fit you ^^
But you know, even if you begin with the "wrong" one (if there is really a wrong way to begin), it's not the end of the world.
Learning is (in 99% of the time) a good thing.
PS: HTML / CSS aren't programmation language !! NO NO NO !!
Php is a prog language !!
Plz d0nt k1ll m3. 1 am so d4rk !!
