What programming/coding language should I choose?
I've heard that people recommend Python as first language, because it's easier to learn than others.
I've also thought about C++,Java Script and PHP, because they're pretty much used.

I mean I've decided to take little bit longer course about this and not just tutorials.
Also I would like to study it in Finnish, because on that area my English is really bad.
But all i need just opinions about the languages, I can find the material myself.

I think I'm like generally into web and desktop coding.
I've thought about studying both, in time of course, but what would be good start on these "high-level" languages?
On other forum people recommended to start with Java or Python.

But I've always wanted to create some simple MMORPG, I know that requires skills and time, but I got to start somewhere.
At first, though I'm going to study a bit more HTML which I somewhat already know.

For and MMORPG Java would be a good decision. If you wanna do it browser based.
But for desktop coding you want C++ which could also be used for creating a mmorpg.
The for web based coding. HTML, CSS, PHP, MYSQL and javascript are all your friend.

Do not use w3schools. I stopped using it after I read that, and I'm lucky I caught myself early. They teach bad practices and there are multiple alternatives on that page.

Start With VB Or C# Then Move Up
Click to expand...

I don't agree with doing Vb as it puts you in some annoying habits when coding.
But C# is always a good alternative before C++, to get a grasp of it.
