My last homework for assembly language
« on: 23 November 2003, 08:45 »
In my assembly language class, the last homework assignment was to write a program to demonstrate CGA color graphics.  So I wrote this:
It prints a BSOD message on the monitor  ;)

That would be the code. The top part isn't doing anything, it's just a data declaration.

Incidentally, where you do the same thing over and over but with different strings, wouldn't that have been better as a loop?

Depends on what you want to accomplish with the skill. I would say, pick a language, then get a book.

Buy a book on PHP, its a pretty good language to start with, then learn C or Perl.

By the time you know them, you will be able to make up your own mind.

Java is the best language to learn for a programming beginner.

Programming languages are like human languages in many respects. They all have a common 'vocabulary', but different syntax and so on.

What I suggest for a person that wants to learn a programming language is PHP. It is flexible, powerful, extensible, and above all C-like. Please note that I wrote C-like and not C-alike lol! PHP is a LOT more forgiving than C is, but it is a good way to start and it will definitely ease your transition to C.

After PHP, as you may have already understood, I propose C and then, if you want, C++.

I also strongly recommend picking up markup languages, starting from (X)HMTL and then going all the way up to XML. Also learn some CSS...

Others will probably recommend Perl. I don't, but that is a matter of opinion I suppose.

Just my 2 cents

Hmm, who can beat that kind of well-structured and constructive argument X?

Seriously, before jumping into learning higher-level programming, you should begin with proper markup. The benefit of learning how to write proper XHTML, HTML and so on is STRUCTURE! This is a key word for a programmer and subsequently a hacker (WARNING: I wrote hacker and not cracker! There is great difference between those two terms!)...

Oh, and X... I wouldn't be writing this to you if it weren't for the HyperText Markup Language and its variants  ;)

DO NOT start with java.  it may look cool and you could probably start spitting out actual GUI in ur code in a matter of 1-2 weeks and learn the basic concepts, but do NOT start with java.  PHP is a better solution. actually, ignore java altogather unless it;s a requirment in one of ur courses.
