I want to learn to code but don't know where to start, i was thinking about starting with c++ or is that a bad idea? Can anyone point me in the direction of some guides for complete noobs.
C++ is generally learnt after C.
Umm, I guess you can try C first if you want to - if you find it too difficult, start with some scripting language or try BASIC.
For guides - just Google - there's plenty 'o them :P
I started with visual basic. If you plan to make nice and pretty simple pc stuff do that, however, if you plan to program for linux or psp try C, and if you plan to make websites you can chose either visual basic and then learn ASP which is like it, or learn PHP
I have to learn some of this too.

As to which, it all depends on what you want to do. As an overall beginners language, I'd probably say VB or C++
is your best shot. I find C++ easier than C or VB, personally, and it's pretty useful. It doesn't really encorporate
GUI programming or networking though, so you'll have to explore that on your own.
Cool site im gonna check it out later.
yeh that's the problem i had with c++, no gui
in vb its sort of 50/50 (well you know)
Hmm, I still can't force myself to use Visual C++... _VEndeTta, what do people use for those cross-platform GUIs? Other than things like Java. Python?
