If you are good with texts i recommend you buy a good text book and start learning.I don't know about java but for C i would recommend 'C, The Complete Reference' by Herbert Schildt.

and welcome to the forum :smile:

start with 'C' and polish it.
K&R for 'C' (Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie)
is a good book that will get you going.

I could suggest a good beginner book for Java since I came across one at the college I used to work at.

"Head First Java - Kathy Sierra and Bert" something

If you don't mind a non-technical book (its a fun read) to start out in Java then this would definitely make a good addition. If you plan on writing a certification which seems to be the trend of everyone nowadays then the best book recommended for SCJA is Cameron McKenzies book on the subject.

both are very good languages to start with

u can start with Wrox professional series books they give layman explanation so its easy to kick-start with any language.

also have a look at Black book series books such as "Java Black book"

& keep learning & welcome to TDF njoy your stay

If you are totally new to programming, I would recommend learning Python.

Learn python first, then it will be easy to learn C/C++ and Java.
For C go for Programming in ANSI C by Denies Ritchie also you have this forum to post your doubts.

C seems easy.

Java has stuff such as classes etc which is too confusing for new user.

I started with C, learning C++ now, concepts like Classes initially were too confusing for me initially, so better start with C.

ANSI C there is an Indian Version , it is simple and is for getting to know the most basic knowledge of C , a good base is definitely required for programming. First learn the basics , later on you can think about 'creating softwares' , trust me it is a long way ahead.

there are some good tutorials and a good one is docs.python.org and you can find Python books here
wiki.python.org/moin/IntroductoryBooks
also Head First Python by Paul Barry is a very good introductory book.
Practice as much as you can.
Happy Programming...... :)

Good book for starting Python is 'How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python' by Peter Wentworth, Jeffrey Elkner, Allen B. Downey, and Chris Meyers.

Good book for starting Python.

I'd actually recommend Zed Shaw's Learn Python the Hard Way.

He's got Learn C the Hard Way in the pipeline too.

If you are absolutely new to a programming language it is better to join a institute. You can use the books along with what is taught in class.It is hard for me to motivate myself to learn new concepts. IF u attend lectures it will be easier.

If someone's low on budget, 'How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python' is a free and open source book and is pretty useful for beginners. But I guess every book has its own advantages. Depends on the reader :)

^ The Learn Code The Hard Way series of books are free as well if you read them online. You'll have to pay if you need the PDF/Mobi/Kindle versions

Actually, you can write a script which can scrap HTML version and put it inside PDF. :p
