    Maybe we should have a poll on this to see what is the general thought on both.

    To learn Programming:
    1. Learn how to program, not learn a particular language.
    2. Learn to think, brainstorm...
    3. Learn technology like OOP technique (start with Smalltalk), Functional Programming (LISP), Logic Programming(Prolog). Then self-study all others language.

    I strongly suggest the .NET Framework. You can learn any of the languages of the .NET, but you'll probably want to stick to C# because of the syntax that is similar to C++.
    By learning C# you'll be able to develop ASP.NET websites and Windows applications. C# and ASP.NET developers are also paid better than most of the other programmers.

    Google, by the way, uses C# along with other technologies.

    I'm standing for c++
    Java just too expensive, i mean it need more resources, of course with simple apps this is no problem but creating more complex code everytime c++ is better solution, although it is a little too complex sometimes

    Java is easier to learn and multi-platform
    C++ is more powerful

    I chose C++ for college personally

    IMHO, C# is something like Visual Basic where u just drag and drop to design interface, and a lil bit of coding to make the buttons, texts are working while C++ is a programming language the needs much much coding.

    The other, C# comes with integrated interface while C++ not. You need other tools to design c++ interface.

    that my humble opinion after 3++ years in programming. :)

    Currently the AP courses offered in the us are java. They switched over to java about 4 years ago?
    BTW: C++ use to be the better, but in recent years java has past all of its "flaws".

    When I went to school, we were taught C, C++ to start, but soon classes went to Java, especially to learn some OOP concepts.

    It's not like that.
    C# has the advantage of the .NET Framework that makes things easier for the coder, however the syntax is very much like C++. Dragging buttons and other elements onto the form is the same convenience that you can have with C++, but the rest is coding as usual. You don't necessarily have to use Visual Studio .NET to compile C# applications, just like you don't have to use Visual Studio to compile C++ applications.
    The convinience with C# is that you have the framework which provides you a set of useful classes, but I wouldn't compare that with VB.

    VB.NET is the one that has a syntax that's similar to VB, and it's a good choice for programmers coming from a VB background.

    i think c# has an easier syntax too..i heard that the for loops are different than what is used in java and c++..more straight forward

    for(int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
    {
    // So it's the same thing :)
    }
