Simple. What kind of programming language do you know, and whats the best one in your opinion?
The only programming language that i'm familiar with is C#, so therefore its AWESOME (not really, i need to learn it for school XD)
I use Scratch. To learn more on how to create your own interactive stories, games, music and art, click
here. Its as simple as 123. Imagine, Program, Share. Learn Scratch today to enjoy the experiences of programming.

C, C++, and python FTW.
I liek snakes.
More specifically, python!
scratch is my favorite.
my favoriter is brainfuck <3
I know C, C++, Java, HTML, CSS3, JavaScript, PHP, SQL, Lua, JSON, a bit of Python, Processing(for Arduino).
My favorite is by far C++. For opinions on other programming languages, see
this link.
I know C++, HTML and CSS (not really programming languages), JavaScript and Lua. And brainfuck is fun :b
My favourite language to program in is C++. The language I usually use however is JavaScript, because it can be run straight from the browser with no plugins, and and because combined with CSS and HTML and Canvas you can make some pretty neat graphics. Also, everything HTML/canvas/CSS/JS is 100% cross platform <3
I do not know. People say "Start C++!" "Python NAWO!" "Java is good" i do not know what really is the best.
I know too many languages. I mostly program in C++ and C# nowadays though.
There is no 'best' language. There's only the language that fits you the best. There's a wide range of good programming languages to choose from

C++ is the most useful.
Python is the easiest to learn, and a nice language.
Java ... NO ... NOT JAVA

I completely agree with this post. Never start with C++ though, you'll bail out quickly enough.
A local friend (Soon to be my boss for my intern job) said I should start in the basics, the COMPLETE basics. That is DOS. Should I go through with it? (BTW, he gave me 9 server computers, all from 1995 ish, including a unix box)
That's one path.
I'd say get familiar with the baaasic concepts of programming, and into the right mindset in something nice and friendly, such as python. Then after feeling you are decent at it, you could move to something basic, but it's much better to get the very basics nailed in something which you can make mistakes with, and learn while watching tutorials, and (CHEATY) C/P code from google

Lemme tell you a secret: You are playing a game which is written in java! :O
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANYWAY
I'm learning C++, the language i started off with is visual basic and batch.
Personally I like Javascript, due to it's ease of use for the user - simply go to a URL and there you go. No need to download anything or install anything at all. It's also cross platform, and if you want it as a mobile app, simply make a native app with a web view pointing to the Javascript source. Combined with Canvas, CSS, HTML and other web standards, it's quite powerful both for graphics and GUIs too.
If we disregard that however, C++ is by far the language I prefer to code in. It just feels so much easier to write structured code, and it's
fast. Javascript, being an interpreted language, got nothing against the compiled language C++ in terms of speed.
Also, I agree with the whole "Java ... NO ... NOT JAVA" thing
(Sadly, Notch does't).

I can assure you, Xeo knows this fact and has had a crashed minecraft various times in his lifetime because 'java is drunk'.

Uhm .. yes, I'm not an idiot xD
things that give me the clue I may be playing a java game:
Java crash text files
Java process
The window for fullscreen has a java icon
The fact it has .jars in it
The fact it uses lwgl
The fact it needs java to run
The fact it reccomends a 64 bit java version
Yup, we all know it's java.

Neve eva underestimate Xeo
Start with Intel x86 Assembly, it's very easy to learn.
Thats quite a good one, like it
. Imma google some more on "Intel x86 Assembly".

Scratch isn't a programming language, it is showing and teaching the basics of it, but it is far from being a real programming language
2 things:
1: scratch is a fully fledged programming language, seeing as you can program with it, even though they're just extremely basic.
2: don't bump 3 year old threads.
