(i heard it)I am 24 and I started designing websites (HTML/XHTML/CSS/JavaScript) when I was 18. I started programming when I was 21 (C#,C++,PHP,ASP.Net)do you know all those languages? cool man... which oone is better? C#,C++, or visual basic. can u make the programs that you do with visual basic in C++ or C#? if yes, then why u learned all this laguages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 do you know all those languages? cool man... which oone is better? C#,C++, or visual basic.can u make the programs that you do with visual basic in C++ or C#? if yes, then why u learned all this laguages?Yes I know all those, but those are only the ones I regularly use. You are asking a loaded question, which is better C# or C++. To that I will reply qwith a question, what do you want to do?Generally I prefer C# from desktop and web programming because it is so portable. I can write a class and use it in both my desktop and web apps.But when it comes to game programming I would say you need to use C++ (w/ OpenGL or DirectX)Although C# is improving in performance in areas like games so I imagine we'll start to see a shift (maybe not completely) towards using C# in the gaming industry.as for VB, I don't like it much. I would rate it #3 of the group.Well the reason I learn so many was mostly due to inexperince.When I started programming in college I took several courses, VB6, PERL, ASP because they were required. Then after college I was offred a job but they wanted me to use ASP.Net so I learned it over the summer before I began my job (but I learned VB.Net) and then after a month or so of working the company decided to switch to C# (which was a great decision, IMO) so then I heard everyone talking about how great PHP was so I decided to try and I loved it.So I use ASP.Net at work and for large personal projects and PHP for smaller personal stuff. I also began learning C++ 6-8 months ago because I and interested in games programming and C++ seems to be the industry favorite for games.So there you have it I know (X)HTML,CSS,JavaScript,PERL,ASP,PHP,ASP.NET,VB6,VB.Net,C#,C++ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pulpfiction Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 [@eguru] your statement sounds a lil untrue.....i accept 12 or 14 is a young age and not many would have a personal computer, but your statement about programmers, i dont think thats true.... i started porgramming when i was 17. though didnt have a PC till i was 20 or 21.. With ur personal experience with just a few ppl around, you cannot generalize things..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justsomeguy Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I'm 27 now, I wrote my first program at 18. I didn't start on the web until 19 or so. I either know well, or have been taught at some point (i.e. forgot most of) HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, SQL, VB (ASP), C, C++, C#, Ada, Prolog, Lisp, Turbo Pascal, Java, OpenGL, and a few others.

Akula_dude Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 I started on VB4 when i was 10, and got into VB.NET about a year after. So I spent three years of free time messing around until I discovered the web. Then I got into HTML and made my first website (dont taunt me for it, please ) and soon moved on into the realm of simple CSS and JavaScript. Now, around six months later I decided to get a book on PHP, and two months on from that here I am. Currently not sure what to learn next, but Java and XML look very promising. Theres a good chance I wont be learning anything else to do with .NET, because of the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boen_robot Posted October 9, 2006 Share Posted October 9, 2006 Both the template based introduction (suggested at first by yours truly) is available as it was already mentioned, AND the question about when you started has also been discussed many times. I don't know about the rest, but I'm tired of repeating the same story over and over again . Some day, I'm going to write a biography and just reply with a link to it whenever asked a similar question .Here's an example of such topic:http://w3schools.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=6287 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
