Does anyone know where I could download a free version of C/C++/C# ?
Thanks for all your help.

Thanks. (I still might want C and C++) And btw is Visual C/C++ the same as C/C++ ?
I also need Admin privs...

if you don't know how to program in C, you can get the C for Dummies book and it comes with the program and compiler.

I could learn quickly, if you've heard of Warcraft or Starcraft, I started playing that when I was 4! Without ANY help.
And I learned Scratch mostly without any help.

Well, you are in luck, because there are more free C compilers and on-online tutorials than you could sample in a lifetime. C# is a Microsoft-flavored C++, and C++ is an object oriented version of C (and "object oriented" is something you already know about, since you're good at Scratch). Whenever you see "visual," it basically means you can click and drag components around and actually "see" the program visually (rather than being text alone)... Wait. That also sounds like Scratch...

No, visual means that the code has interactive tips, and you can design windows by dragging elements.... Visual may also mean syntax-coloring thing. I had Visual Web Designer, but then I got Flash and I'm trying to learn it.

Chalk: Are C Compilers programming or just a compiler?

My brother: "I don't understand! Tell me how to use it!" I did most of his projects for him.
Lol I taught my DAD applescript

Lol, not surprising though.
I learn most of my electronics from him, everything else I learn myself. ^.^ I learned how to play Starcraft when I was 4!! (Starcraft is a game by Blizzard. Don't worry about it if you don't know what that is.

Microsoft have a free version called visual studio express. They also have developer packs where you can get all Microsoft software fro a few hundred pounds.
I hate Visual C++, it's a pretty bad compiler

Well, we all have different opinions.

You only need the compiler. Use the GNU GCC Compiler. You can do the rest in:
Notepad // Windows
TextEdit // Mac OS X
gedit // Most Linux distributions.

You will need help with C/c++/c#. It is not easy. I recommend getting the Dummies package. It is much better than trying to learn from online tutorials.

I only know one book that's worth reading, it teaches Python and still I can learn really faster than you can think.
I don't like any online tutorials any ways.

Those need Admin Privs.
I can't find the download to the GCC GUN Complier.
Linky to it?
