What programming language should i start with to learn programming?

Question by @Mason_Patrick: What programming language should i start with to learn programming?
I know a little bit of c++ from a class i took last semester, but my professors sucked (and one of them wrote the language). I have a general grasp, but i want to really learn it. What is a good starting language and what books/websites/resources would you recommend?

Your professor wrote C++? I would learn an easy language, like BlitzMax. It’s a hybrid language between BASIC and C, with OOP capabilities and the like. It’s mostly used for game programming, but it also get’s other projects going fast.

Javascript.

C# is the way to go. It’s very similar to Java syntactically, and supports multiple programming paradigms ( imperative, declarative, functional, OO, etc.) Don’t let the ‘C’ in the name fool you, it’s fundamentally very different (and much better) than C or C++, which are fast becoming dinosaurs.

Also significant is that C# is a .NET development language, which is where the money is at :)
