Which language should i take up first?

by Robbie Kasprick · in Technical Issues · 12/12/2006 (5:41 am) · 1 replies

I am thinking about going ahead and start self-teaching myself some programming before i learn it in college. Whether it be a little, or large amount of information, it is always better to be a step ahead. I am wondering, should i focus on C++ or C#.

If you're genuinely interested in getting ahead for college in an academic way, then Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs is where it's at, and the language for today is Scheme.

On the other hand, if what you actually wanna do is learn to program games, I'd suggest starting with C, and moving to C++.
