Well... I'm headed back to school another 4 years to get a degree in Computer Information Systems in the area of Web Development and Administration which isn't designing but rather programming.

Most of the classes are programming and I am not sure if there is a PHP class but there is Visual Basic.Net, C#.Net, C++.Net, and some others.

How should I go about becoming a programmer? I was thinking of starting with PHP and learning the basics. Still don't know what strings and arrays and all that stuff is or how to create my own statements.

Class doesn't start for another few months so I want to be somewhat preparred before getting owned by all the programming stuff.

If your a programmer yourself what is the best/easiest/fastest way to get the basic grip of programming in general?

I'd start learning with java. Java is alot easier to use than C/C++, but it gives you the basics of 'real' programing.

All you really need to get, is the Java Develepment Kit (JDK)
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp Update 6 I think it is.


Install that and restart, and I can teach you some java

I think I installed it I'm not sure. When I try to extract it says:

"The file 'jdk-6u6-linux-i586.bin' does not appear to be compressed or encoded. It is advised that you obtain further information about the contents of this file from the sender or provider of the file."

They had no option for Mac just Linux and Windows and some other one. If it doesn't work on mac I will have to wait till I get my new mac with intel processor installed so I can run windows stuff.

I forgot your on a MAC.
Java itself dosnt support mac, but mac supports java. They've made there own java runtimes and stuff. Work perfectly, except when new versions come out for other PC's there might be a delay for mac.

http://developer.apple.com/java/

[quote]Mac OS X includes the full version of J2SE 1.5, pre-installed with the Java Development Kit (JDK) and the HotSpot virtual machine (VM), so you don't have to download, install, or configure anything.[/quote]

Hmm.. Open up a terminal and write
[code]javac[/code]
and see if it tells you if javac is not defined, or if you didnt specify a class to compile. (and yes, javac with a c on the end, is javas compiler).
