Hi. I'm Farhan from Bangladesh and have decided to get into programming. I'm currently learning Basic and Python and hope to move into other languages soon enough. Cheers to all of you.

Hello Fahran, I am glad you could join us from all the way over there. Great languages you've started out with!

Hi Farhan,
Good to see you around. One small word of advice. While learning one language, focus and get a good deep grip on it and only then move to another.
I am beginning to get a feeling these days that every body wants to increase number of languages learned counter asap. There is nothing wrong with that as long as you do justice to the one you learned.
More importantly, try to learn to program well. The general constructs of programming are same to a large extent and once you really have a sound grip, using any language is a piece of cake.
That being said, there are significant differences between high vs low level languages (for e.g. C vs ROR). But what ever you chose and there must have been good reasons to do so, use it to turn yourself into a good programmer.
Remember it is of little use if you could write two loops and a function to print square root in 5 languages, but are having tough time delivering one solid application in any of them.
Lastly, even if you learn them all today, sooner there would be others. But the ones who have developed the programming mindset and have used various languages for their expression are the fastest ones to adopt.
