![]() Hello everybody,
i'm writing to seek some advice from all the programmers/developers and basically all the tecno nerds in the forum :P i've always wanted to learn about programming, but i've ended up studing something completly unrelated. So, as i am approaching the end of my college education, i find myself with more spare time to read about things that puzzle me... in this sense, i wanted to ask you if you can recommend some sort of "begginers book" or "understanding programming for dummies" if you would, or any kind of tutorial, so i can start getting a better grasp about this intriguing yet totally unknown world for me. any help, reccomendations, links, etc in this regard would be very appreciated! | ||

![]() I'm in no way a programmer but there's a bunch of different types/languages out there. Have you come across one you want to look into?

![]() Are you leaning more towards programming, electronics, or both?
I can't speak much on the pure programming side,but while in college I was required to take two programming classes that also integrated the electronics side too. To that end, we learned C, some BASIC, MATLAB, and whatever the hell you could call the Arduino language (Arduino...?). If you're wanting to dabble in the electronics, I would grab one of these: http://www.radioshack.com/product/in...uctId=12268262 And then read: http://www.arduino.cc/ In a nutshell, the arduino is a microcontroller (mini-computer) that you can use to attach sensors, servos, DC motors, etc to do a crap ton of things. It is also open source so you can find a bunch of free information and programs for it. As for regular ol' programming, I hear Visual C++ is useful. Again I don't know too much of the pure programming side so maybe someone else can chime in. | ||

In short, study up on programming logic first. Its the prerequisite for pretty much any programming class in school.
