Re: [Dev-C++] Need info

Good morning,

There are several great responses to this query already and I just wanted to 
give you one further response.

If you are new to programming entirely, then I would suggest something that 
is outdated...just to get your program structure fundamentals up to speed.

In this respect...languages like QBasic, BASIC, and PASCAL, though outdated 
are all great languages to help you get started.  They are relatively high 
level languages with "English" like syntax.  I know you can still download 
copies of QBasic from the web but the other two languages have evolved over 
the years to Visual Basic and Delphi, which can be overwhelming to a person 
new to programming.  Anyway, just read up on them and if interested...try 
one out.

If you have programming experience...then jump right into C...by grabbing a 
good book on it.  Many of the other people on this list have recommended 
books on C and C++...so good luck!
