Computer Languages for a Noob

I am a noob/intermediate type hacker if you want to label it and i am wondering what languages i should learn. A List. Pls include in the list a MINIMUM of 4 Languages ty.

Core

HTML PHP Javascript C++

K thnx ;)

no problemo

I see javascript much more than php. I suggest you learn in this order, but then again, I don't know much.. ;)

1. html
2. javascript
3. php
4. C++

And Batch is amazingly fun and simple. You should learn that too- it won't take you long.

Damn i just printed 500 pages on many langs (only posted here) and a few hacking method tuts. And dos/telnet hacking. 500 pages! im outta ink :( lol I might be back tomorrow with an new ink cartrige. Lol hp laserjet 1012 is pretty damn good :P but the ink cartrige is around 50-100 dollars :( Ima study tonight though!

Ps. i know i am not spelling cartrige rite. Or am i.

Core

Heres how Ive learned it.

HTML JavaScript PHP - Still learning Batch Qbasic Visual BASIC - still learning C++ still learning C Still learning

I reccommend batch and Qbasic to get the feel of a real language (both a lil outdated, but they DO come in handy) Batch is pretty powerful, C++ is Object Oriented Programming, C is an older version of C++, yet powerful, Visual BASIC is pretty easy. HTML, JavaScript are a must, PHP is helpful.

HTML doesnt count as a 'programming language' neither does Javascript :) but you should still learn them PHP is more of a Server Side Scripting language.. Still handy to know.. But def something like C++ or Visual Basic or maybe both ;)

He says he's still a noob so I guess C++ is out of the question, just because it's very difficult.

My tips: HTML CSS/JavaScript PHP

Start off with these, it's just the basic but you'll have your hands full :P

Spot on. PHP is an absolute must to becoming a web hacker.

also when you learn php the syntax ans structure is much the same as C++.

so makes it alot easier to learn C++ if you have PHP knowledge.

Wow thx hbh :P

Okay here is a list of code types you should learn (not just programming languages)

HTML (Basics to most web design) JavaScript (good to know what does what) PERL (awsome for crating CGI Scripts) PHP (Great Server Side Scripting Language) SQL (MUST HAVE!!!) Basic (Includes Visual and non) C/C++ (They are technically the same) C* (If you want to get into game design) Python (Good starting language (Though I started with PERL))

Hope these Help you out Core

Thnx bro.

well heres what i know

-HTML and some Javascript-

heres how i would learn it

HTML JavaScript PHP C*

what is C*? you mean C* (Sharp)?

like Mr_Cheese said C++ and PHP are quite similar in their syntax's. I first learned C++ and then i moved on to PHP. PHP i picked up like cake lol since i had been programming with C++.
