So if anyone remembers me, I went ahead and attempted to learn C++ a few weeks back (Not including many failed tries before), and failed miserably, again.

I'm wondering: What coding language did you start first, before attempting to learn C++?

Sorry, I do realize this is not really a Programming question, so if it's in the wrong section, could a mod please move it to General Discussion?

C

most concepts carry over fine, while this doesn't work quite as well the other way around.

but you really shouldn't have much trouble starting out in C++, where are you learning from? a good book will probably help a lot.

http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/

is probably your best online bet.

C++ Primer Plus is a good book as well

get Visual Studio, it's free and is the best IDE you can get.

Started off with Visual Basic, then I moved on to some C# then C++.

For me, I first tried C++ but with no luck, was hard for me. Then I found autoit. Autoit has it's own syntax and compiler to easily create windows based automated scripts. It's very easy to learn as its help file is very helpful explaining every function with an example and hiding data types and all this confusing stuff that appears in any of the "big" programming languages. It will help you understand the main concepts of programming like loops, conditions etc. and a little GUI programming, but don't stay on that because this scripting language is limited and automated, so its hiding stuff from you, and if you want to be a good programmer you should go to more advanced stuff like C,C++. In C you can start creating small console applications to do the work, undestand very well the syntax, data types and how they look in memory.

Don't learn Basic, I tried, but wanted to shoot myself. C was easier than Basic!

I learned Ruby first, but I think what got me prepared for C/C++ was learning action script (Flash). I just downloaded the two free trials and programmed for 8 hours a day for 2 months. It was the most fun I ever had, and at the end I had made a shitty RPG and an arcade game. So, I suggest you find something that is fun, then you will want to program.

If you want to be serious, go to youtube and search for CS106a (Java for absolute beginner), and CS106b (c++, pre-requisite is cs106a). I started out around march/april this year n now i m all gd. it takes arnd 3-4 month to finish each course if slow.

Try them if you want to be serious, good luck!

C is your best bet.

So I've decided to take up Autoit, because I'm really, really interested on learning this kind of stuff..

Do you guys think it's easier to learn through tutorials, or the help file?

Also, if I were to learn from the help file.. does anyone have any programs you think I could attempt to make?

Every time I open scite I just sit there with the help file, with no ideas on what to make..
