Currently at college done a small amount programming last year, c programming, visual basic and javascript. I am intrested in picking these up again, i know the basic concept of these but have forgotten commands etc. And can anyone reccomend a programming language, that will come in useful in a job role?! Keep hearing mysql getting mentioned not exactly sure what it is.

Well id like to learn more visual basic and web programming but done a search and it didnt come up with anything really that good

DrSmutt

C or C++ is more the industry standard for applications.

visual basic is easy to learn though so it will give you programming experience

look on ebay for books or a library.

Thanks yeah i thought c programming was abit dull as programming goes, but suppose it was the version we were using and what it could do....looked like a compiler from the 1980's

microsoft were giving away a time limited version of visual studio express editions 2005

look at the link top left. VB,C#,j#....

you have to register to get a key.

and c hasnt changed that much (it has but not from where your starting)

C and it's variants are on there way out. Java is somewhere in a middle point of continuing or being disregarded. Web languages aren't regarded as programing or as a programming language but as a scripting language.

Best bet is a basic language to being with to learn the fundementals like loops etc.

mysql is used at backend for database.I strongly recommend that you should learn asp .net or php if you want to become a web developer along with html ,javascript,css and dhtml.

Looks like an illegal copyright infringement site to me but I could be wrong. There are ebooks there of books that aren't supposed to have ebooks available for them.

MySQL is an open source database.
