- >: What's a good language to learn programming ?
-
- I'd have to say Think Pascal is good to learn and about the quickest to
- throw together programs in (of the high level languages/compilers). Don't
- use HyperCard ( It's great and a real advantage of a mac, but it won't get
- you anywhere.) or BASIC. If you learn Pascal, C is simple to learn and
- vice versa, but Think Pascal automates a lot of the tricky compiling
- stuff, but the language is the same. Maybe I'm biased because I only
- recently got C with CodeWarrior but I still like the Think Pascal
- environment better, especially for beginning.
