try the easy visual basic programming.

vb can be easy but IMO a beginner to programming should not be exposed to GUI based languages so soon. Thanks guys

spiderA GREAT book for people who are completely new to programming is "Objects First with Java" - ISBN 0-13-197-629X.
It introduces you to object oriented programming in general and Java in PARTICULAR. It comes with a programming environment designed for teaching called BlueJ. In my opinion it's an incredibly easy way to get start with object oriented programming. And once you know Java you pretty MUCH know C# as well so that's two languages in one. deerpark, thanks I will pick that up too.
I have Visual Basic 6 and beginning programming for Dummies!

thanks again guys
spiderGlad I could help.
Though I would recommend you choose either VB or Java to focus on at first else it might get quite confusing.
When you first know one language pretty well, learning a second language isn't hard since most languages have some similarities. hi,

since it is your first time, as you have well mentioned, i would personally suggest, you take programming by the heart, what do i mean here is, take into the foundation, the logic programming, i admit there are hundreds of programming language available around each one of its own DESIGN, power and capabilities but none of them goes without the logic. hope you get what i mean, a fair start would always be good to hit it soft then gradually moving on. i suggest C or C++.

GUI world is a lot easier but you tend to lose the gist. but if you need thunder apps to be developed in lightning then use them.

but suggestion of people are real cool and good to take into your consideration.

good luck.
