<html><div style='background-color:'><P>Good morning,</P> <P>Just wanted to chime in here. Jason's opinion on this topic is right along the same lines as mine. I totally agree that it is important to learn the fundamentals behind the structure of programming first.</P> <P>As I mentioned in an email to another person posting this same question (possibly the same person under a different email address)... I'd recommend something like Pascal or QBasic to start you off. They are outdated and are aimed at teaching programming from a console (DOS window) environment, but they will be excellent at "starting your journey" as Jason said, into the world of programming.</P> <P>Back when I was in college, the first programming language that they taught there was Pascal. Then we progressed into C and C++ and then into learning more about Data Structures, Algorithms, Operating Systems, etc. Anyway, my point is...start with something small and work up... QBasic, BASIC, and Pascal are all languages that are great starting points.</P> <P>Start there, with the basics....and feel free to email should you have any questions along the way.</P> <DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=2>Benjamin Wheeless</FONT></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=2><STRONG>Network Systems - Delta Airlines, Inc.</STRONG></FONT></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG>Atlanta, GA - USA 30320</STRONG></FONT></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><STRONG>==============================</STRONG></FONT></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>----Original Message Follows---- <DIV></DIV>From: Nicole Mark <NIC...@YA...> <DIV></DIV>To: dev...@li... <DIV></DIV>Subject: [Dev-C++] (no subject) <DIV></DIV>Date: Mon, 4 Mar 2002 16:01:56 -0800 (PST) <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Pre-high schooler needs information on how to start learning programming <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>Thanks <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV>--------------------------------- <DIV></DIV>Do You Yahoo!? <DIV></DIV>Yahoo!
