I program in Java mostly. I have tryed HTML with Java script and made a few things with that. I just enjoy making games and phisics simulations with shapes. and dots. and lines. I have yet to attempt to diagram or design with it. I want to try that though

I have to learn that one. Everything seems to be using it now. Know a good source, for a newbie?

Java isn't that great of a language for usability and all that. I'd head towards C# or C+/+ if I were you.

Squeak or Pharo are better than C C++. C# is good but squeak is the best ;) in my opinion

A friend of mine has expressed an interest in learning to code, and that has inspired me to get back into it a bit.
I've found a nice little BASIC interpreter that runs on Android phones (X11 BASIC is the name of the App if you're interested.), so for the last couple of days I've been polishing up my BASIC skills by writing a program to solve sudoku puzzles.
It's not complete yet, but it's getting there.

BASIC was the first programming language I learnt so it's nice to get back to my roots, and I thought it would be a good starting point for teaching my friend too.

What criteria are you using to judge that one language is better than another? Care to provide the reasoning behind your conclusions?

ok that is my opinion but here we go.
squeak is differn't than any other language. what I mean by that is how many languages have you programmed in, that you can be playing around with your program and code at the same time and your program will do what you just programmed?

squeak is purely Object oriented I know there are others but it is cool.

in squeaks debugger you can program all you want with out having to go back the the system browser.

you can do any thing is squeak. I mean if you want to change something in the system it is open to you but if you don't know what you are doing than it is actually a disadvantage but if you know what your doing it is very good.

I will explain more of my opinion later ;)

I'd suggest go with Python. Easy to use and produces spectacular results.

As this is origami forum and I have moved past these things, I'd say : To each his own.*

*( as long as its not visual basic or Java )

Yeah, I've worked with Python a bit before and I'm a big fan of it too, but I couldn't find a good free Python interpreter app for Android devices.

I'm teaching myself Objective-C via Lynda.com. Coming from a web background there are several new concepts to learn and understand, such as memory management.
