I'm a high schooler looking to learn some programming. I run cool apps such as Keepass, Truecrypt, OpenOffice, Super Pi and Firefox. I would love to learn how they work, and I'm also looking to learn some web page design (though desktop apps are more important to me).

After doing some research, it seems that C++ is the king of powerful and efficient languages. Java is better for web design and is easier to program, but C# seems to be taking over Java. I'm pretty confused... it would seem that C++ is the way to go, for a first programming language, but it's pretty difficult to learn and maybe Java/C# is better.

I'm hesitant about going to C#... not that I dislike Microsoft, but I prefer not to be chained to .Net. "Marketability" is also a motivating factor.

Hope you programming gurus have some good advice :)

I am making a construction bid program. Each bid will have 2-6 tables of data. Some of the tables (such as 'materials') might be quite large.

Do I save each bid as a separate database with 2-6 tables?
Or should I just do something more like comma delimited text files?

The number of tables will always be the same. I just haven't decided on how many I need yet.

Please visit my site at http://home.comcast.net/~tjhall1/pa.html to see the gif that I'm talking about. I want the background to show through the words "picture not available". I tried doing it in Photoshop but I just don't get it. Paint is worthless. The name of the file is pna.gif. No scam, no viruses. Just a site of my cabbage patch collection.

For some reason the compiler is not liking the for loops (I think) I can't seem to figure out why my code isn't working, can anyone help?

public static void Main()
{
double BASIC_DOG_PRICE = 2.00;
double CHILI_PRICE = 0.69;
double CHEESE_PRICE = 0.49;
String wantChili, wantCheese;
double price;
Console.Write("Do you want chili on your dog?" );
inputString wantChili = Console.ReadLine;
Console.Write("Do you want cheese on your dog?" );
inputString wantCheese = Console.ReadLine;

for wantChili == 'Y'
for wantCheese == 'Y'
price = BASIC_DOG_PRICE + CHILI_PRICE + CHEESE_PRICE;

forBASIC_DOG_PRICE + CHILI_PRICE;

for wantCheese == 'Y
for(BASIC_DOG_PRICE + CHEESE_PRICE);

for (BASIC_DOG_PRICE);

Console.WriteLine("Your total is {0}", price.ToString("C"));

}
}

I am creating a website that will store images, probably thousands and thousands. Is it better to store all of the image in one place, a big grand single folder(unique names) or to create lots of little folders with a smaller amount? Which will cause a bigger hit on the server? If it is a good idea to use multiple folders, what cap should there be per folder?

I was wondering, how do you create a computer program? Do you USE a program to create a program? When I say PROGRAM, I mean like AOL or Internet Explorer. Something like that. What language do you write programs in? I would really appreciate any information that you might have! Thanks for reading!

I'm going to graduate with a CS degree in a few months, but I'm concerned about my prospects. The required classes for a degree at my school are not giving me as many real-world type skills as I would like, and they don't offer very many electives that teach tangible skills. Theory and abstract programming is nice, but I'm not getting experience applying any of it.

The classes I've taken have stressed data structures, algorithms, etc. In 3 years the only language they've even given me a taste of is Java, and that was not as thorough as I would have liked.

I've done some programming on my own, but I'm not going to graduate knowing all those lovely acronyms employers want: J2EE (and Java et. al), C/C++, VB/C#/.NET, etc.

I've got some basic RDBMS experience, but don't have any experience (or access to) Oracle, MS SQL, etc. Most employers aren't looking for MySQL/Postgre.

What should I do? Will I be able to find a job? Do recent CS graduates make very good money? Thank you.

Do you get your logic right the first time you write your program? Or would you need to rewrite it a couple of times before you get it right
