- This is an intresting question !

- Well for new learning programming I think it is useful to learn a
- language like Pascal or Modula II. Because it is much easy to
- understand.
- If you want to go for a job try to learn C++, but know this if you
- don't know anything on how to program a computer this will be very
- difficult .
- If you want to create quick a program try to use Visual Basic.
