How to learn programming?

Quote:

Do you have any tips about how should I start or can you give me the steps I needed in learning computer programming?

You have to know that you can do pretty much anything in any language, simply some languages are harder for beginners because there is more pitfalls to handle.
You need to master a set of techniques that are the basis of the job and are not linked to a language.

Advices:
- Start with an easy/safe language: VB, Java, C#, not C or C++
- Read documentation / Follow tutorials (a lot of them)
- Start with tiny/useless projects, the purpose is to learn programming, not doing something useful.
- Start with console mode programs (no fancy graphics, no mouse)
- Learn debugger

- A problem ? Google is your friend.
- Learn Algorithms and Data-Structures.
- Learn Boole algebra
- Learn one or more analyze methods, E.W. Djikstra top-Down method is a good start.

There is no shortcut to knowledge, no one can learn for you, you are the only one that can do it.
Remember the exercises and little projects are not here to make something useful, they are here to teach you programming.
