Programming languages: where to start?
I have been experimenting with debian now for about 8 months and have some
experience in programming in a Dos-environment using languages like
Turbopascal, PDC-prolog, DBASE III and Basic earlier on.
I seems to me that to be able to enjoy the power of Linux, I should be
able to do some Linux programming.
Where should I start? C, C++, Perl, Python, Tk, Bash script language,
AWK, SQL, itcl?
When programming in the past I wrote menu-based small databases most of
the time and I would like to be able to write programs that are
useful to me and that can be ported to a Dos/Windows environment because
none of my colleagues are Linux-users. I have tentatively started
working on a book 'Learn C++ Today' together with some documentation on gcc.
Which is the best way from here?
