The single Clearest book I have ever read on Delphi is Delphi 4 Bible by Tom Swan.
It was published by IDG Books Worldwide, and the ISBN is : 0-7645-3237-5
It has been out of print for a while, but you may be able to find one via used books outlets on the Net.
I am not familiar with the text that Novi mentioned.

You also can get hundreds of Delphi code samples by downloading the Jedi Code Library from Sourceforge.net

Taken from http://cc.codegear.com/Free.aspx?id=24722 -
Turbo Delphi Explorer Free Download, Full Product, English
Important: You must download and install the following prerequisites before installing your Turbo product

The prerequisite installer will install the software necessary for your Turbo product to run, including Microsoft .NET Framework v1.1 Redistributable, Microsoft .NET SDK v1.1, Microsoft Visual J# v1.1 Redistributable, Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP1 and Microsoft XML Core Services v4.0 SP2. If you already have any of these items installed, the installer will skip them.
English full prerequisite install

Did you try clicking the linky "English full prerequisite install" above? It offers me prereqs.zip.

VB shouldn't be too hard. If you find it too hard, try Python. It's an even higher language than VB as it's an interpreted language. What you enter is what you get (sort of when at the basic level). But the downside of this is... it's slow.

Any thoughts on this?


Yes c# is a better option, why

For c++ u have to worry about memory allocation, and alot of other advanced stuff, but for c# everything is taken care of, and u dun have to worry about memory leak and stuff like that..

Yes i can tell you memory leaking problems in programming is a pain, and if you do not have the basics of programming you will feel really irritated by it


If anyone is interested, you can download the free complier from M$, google
Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition, there is a 2008 version but its still beta.. and not recommended for ppl that are new

Starting out with C++ as your first learning language is quite a leap. It would probably be much faster and easier
to start out with something like Pascal, Delphi, or VB - or one of the Scripting Languages (Perl, Ruby, VBScript, KiXtart, PowerShell, etc)

Then if you still want to learn C++ you will have a much better understanding of what's involved in learning such a language.
Here are some resources to further your interests.

There is at least one more programming thing going on that is relevant to this thread.
It's called Lazarus (SourceForge auspices)
It's an open source rapid development system that is in beta, but available, and is expected to be able to develop and run on lots of platforms Windows, Sparc, Mac, Linux. All with essentially the same code and development environment.

The advantage is that it's not tied to any corporate marketing agenda or dependent on version obsolescence to make money.
http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=StaticPage&file=index&sURL=about
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Overview_of_Free_Pascal_and_Lazarus

It is open source, so volunteers run it. The goals are excellent, if they are able to follow through.
For Windows, you can read what the present limitations are. (Has not many limitations for standalone utilities like we use)
Most of the incomplete areas are for database interfaces and COM objects.
It has its own forum
http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=PNphpBB2&file=index

The Windows executable will essentially install and run right out of the box. No prerequisites. Really simpler than anything else, and no Key Codes!
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89339

It uses Free Pascal code, and is very similar to Delphi. Most of Delphi documentation is useful. Lazarus documentation is online, and can be copied to .doc files, converted to .pdf's, or printed out.

Thanks for all your help everyone. I'm starting with C++ because I hope that by learning the harder one first, I'll be able to learn the other languages easily.

Not sure I agree with that but best of luck anyway. Let us know how you get on.

I would suggest you try to code a Notepad-like editor, and if it proves too difficult, get out and do another language first.

Okay, thanks again. I'm going to be busy, with MRU and schoolwork, so I might hold off on the C++ for a few weeks.
