This may be a dumb question but is there such a thing as programing for dummies, or some other self help ways to learn?
Find some ebook about programming for dummies, download examples, and do step by step as ebook for dummies
The best book from which to learn programming (not a programming language - that comes after you learn programming) is Wirth's "Algorithms + Data Structures = Programs". You can download a pdf at Algorithms & Data Structures.pdf, and you can usually find a used copy at Amazon for about $5. Don't expect to be writing programs by July. Programming isn't something you can learn in a week (or a month). Read Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years. It doesn't take that long to be able to write some code, but a week isn't realistic either.
w3schools is great. It depends on what type of programming you want to learn. I would recommend C or processing first. Processing isnt used in lot applications though but its straight forward enough to learn. Great places for info is lynda.com and kelbytraining.com but they're aint free best luck mate
1) http://w3fools.com/ 2) Learning a programming language isn't learning programming. You learn programming first (in English, or whatever you're most comfortable in), then you learn a few languages to do it in. Learning a language and thinking you've learned programming is just fooling yourself. Programming isn't code, it's algorithms and data structures.
Hey guys!! Don't feel that you are dummies ..... ****Never Give Up**** ****Never Loose Hope**** The real strength lies in Tenacity.As you are beginners the base language that is "C language" will help you more because all the programming languages are developed by taking C as the basic language..Put the maximum effort to learn that language then really you feel very easy to write the programming in any language .At the initial stages take the help, later you should write the programs on your own . This may help you definitely... Thanks
Who ever told you that nonsense? 1) We were programming long before Dennis Ritchie invented C and 2) there are many languages that have absolutely nothing to do with C and look nothing like it. Again nonsense. Put the effort into learning programming (in English, or whatever language you're comfortable in) - algorithms, methods, data structures - then you'll be comfortable writing code in any language you've studied. A person who knows a programming language but doesn't know programming makes a dummy look like a genius.
Do a search on Google and it should come up with a fair amount of free websites where you will be able to learn programming for free. But i would suggest w3schools also as its a pretty good tutorials website.
I'm really sorry ,I just tried writing code by c language so i had just suggested .There are also languages like B language before C.Thanks for the reply ..I m not that much senior like you .Thanks for the suggestion...

The best thing, according to me is, get a Black book for the particular language and practice it accordingly. You can use Google to get the example codes. But, one thing that is must to mention is, learning any language and using it in programming are different things. Just if you learn the language doesnt mean that you can develop programs. You got to practice programming. Happy programming!!!!!!!!!
