You may want to take a look at Stanford's Open Courseware Programming Methodology, CS106A course http://see.stanford.edu

Answer 18

read that site, it is a bit annoying if you dont have any experience

Answer 19

It really depends in what you want to be. If you have 0 experience first learn a scripting language like javascript that will give you an introduction, and then you could learn PHP, Actionscript, C++, or python depending what you want to understand

Answer 20

Turing, Squeak and BASIC are my suggestions

Pascal can work too, HTML, PHP, and JAVA are a must.

Answer 23

I started with Java. It's simple, but not as easy as Python.

Answer 24

Python for programming languages, and you can start with HTML, CSS & PHP as they are 100% necessary, and far more easy (although they 're for websites, not software).
