programming

[Mexifry16]

so this is probably in the wrong area but...
I've been playing around with modding a couple games but it has always came down with me really wanting to actually program somthing into it.
could anyone suggest tools and tutorials for somone who wants to learn to program. I don't care what language i learn c++, python, actionscript, javascript, i just wanna learn and i have 0 expierience or knowledge. so starting from absolute square one can anyone help me?!

If you choose to learn Python (and you should) then get Eclipse and install PyDev plugin for it. That's the best free IDE out there

thanks. I'll check it out but any suggestions as to which language is easiest?

Outside of Civ4, python is a very good and easy language to learn and use. But, it is just a scripting language, so if you want real programming power then I would suggest learning C++ though it a complex language.

As for where to begin, I would suggest google for some beginning tutorials. Python has some good beginning stuff on their home site.
