C or C++...?

HI am newbie to computer programming am confused ..what sould i learn first C or C++...few say to learn C++ Directly and few say start with C..please help me to decide which one to start first...?

C or C++...?
I'd start with C++ myself. If you're first starting out then you'll find code examples on the net to be an invaluable resource. Many of these use C++ specific features, but don't make it particularly clear. If you don't know either language very well then you don't want to be left scratching your head trying to figure out how to get a C++ sample to work in your C compiler. C++ is also a lot closer to some of the other more commonly used languages today (Java, C#, various scripting languages etc), so it's a good place to start. If you need to do very low-level programming later on then it won't be too hard to switch over.
Reply:I'd say start with FORTH. It's a very simple language. C or C++ are not beginner-friendly at all.
Reply:C would be a good start. It's whatever you feel would be best. Look around for tutorials/documentation on the net and choose whichever one looks easiest to learn.
Reply:I can not say which one to start. But C is harder than C++. But if you learn C (which is the hardest of the two) you will find it easier to learn C++.





Even there are easier languages such as C#, VB.net and JAVA. I learned Java first and found C and C++ little bit harder to learn afterward, and C# and VB easier. So I think starting from the hardest is good for you.
Reply:You can learn C first.
Reply:If the choice is between those, then start with C (C++ is C with object orientated bits glued on).





If you want to learn programming, I'd start with Python.

Reply:C++ will teach you how to do things properly. Then move onto C if you want to start hacking.
