Re: Programming Languages Discussion

I would recommend, after learning variables, to start using batch and the command line to learn basic programming using text not blocks, then moving on to something more advanced like Java or C++

Re: Programming Languages Discussion

Would flash be good for an 11 year old? Python's getting a bit too boring and visual graphics are confusing to me in it.

If you want graphics, I recommend JavaScript and HTML 5 canvas.

Or Processing.

Flash is good for games, I suppose, but it isn't very free.

I suggest you stay with one language until you have learnt it. Seriously, you'll never learn anything if you keep switching after a month.

Re: Programming Languages Discussion

Python is a meh to start.

If you want to start on a language you can use foreverrrrr:

Javascript.
C/C++.
ASM (trololo)
Java.

That's it.

The rest will fall out later (i.e. flash is way overpriced and python is SLOW)


Back in my day.... there were no laws that censored the internet... now, there are.... nah.

I'm using a website called code academy to learn JavaScript. It's actually really cool.

If you are intrested in python go  for it , age is no boundation for knowledge and never will be

and as a matter of fact flash has now started to sink its era is over . now is the time for open standards and HTML5 . :-) so if you want to govisual and all go for HTML5

@Trinary
brother flash loses in games from html5 aswell
HTML 5 is 3d-canvas better known as WebGL which is like openGL running inside a browser flashes 3d-stage is good but its a layered and falls behind WebGL in performance etc.
Further webRTC( peer to peer inside web-brower) etc make it better for a game aswell
