Since we're going into stories, I'll show mine
I started with QBASIC as Freshman in High School. I played with some VB6 during that time, but never really got into major GUI projects..I then went through the follow cycles:
1. MSL
2. C++ (Managed)
3. C#
4. C++ (Native)
5. Vb.Net
My primary language is C# because it's fast and easy and I enjoy it. That's really all you need to do; Find a language you enjoy and stick with it.
This is my little "secret" that I use when deciding what language to use a project because I still use C#, Vb.Net, and C++ (A lot, but not enough for full-blown apps):
Toggle SpoilerGraphical User Interfaces are coded in Vb.Net. This includes websites as that's a GUI itself.
Console/Server-type applications are coded in C#.NET
Any Win32 work is coded in C++.

Nah, just choosing a tutorial that uses std:: will lead to massive confusion about how it all works. Then people start writing buggy code and just get frustrated when it doesn't work.

Ive noticed with my own experience and from helping other people, often the official standard documents are to detailed or confusing for people new to programming.
|
I agree with that. When I *tried* to do pascal, it was a complete fat phail
