Intro to programming

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

I use borland's command line compiler. it's really good, but i'm used to using unix so it just makes sense for me :) in my opinion, the hardest thing about programming in C/C++ is compiling everything.

As a lot of people have said, I think Java is the best language to get started with. There's a cool program called BlueJ which is what I learnt it with at unviersity, it has a graphical representation of all the objects and classes that you're using so you can really see and get a feel for what's going on underneath, PLUS it makes compiling REALLY easy for you :)
