Hi,

I want to begin with learning programming to increase my knowledge about
security, but I don't know where to begin. Can someone tell me which
programming language is good to start with, and pherhaps what book
and/or online guides I should take a look at?
It would be nice that if I learn a programming language that it
shouldn't be much work to understand another one.

I am on Linux and Windows.

Thanks for the help.

Regards,

Ben


Hi Ben,

Since no one talked about it, i would mention ADA95 as a good language to start learning to program. It's a heavy formated language, which help you avoid typo in the syntax : "If you can compile it, then it works" (Well maybe not that true, but almost :) ). I've done my first computer school year learning the basis of algorithms with this language, and it work great.
But to be really honest, it's not an all-in-day language (in the industry).

My $.02
