Well, I am primarily a network guy but I’ve done a bit of web development with VB.NET/ASP.NET, and I’m kinda hooked on programming now so I want to move into that.
Like the title says, I want to learn C# as my main development language instead of VB.NET, but since it’s a C-style language I’m wondering if I should start by learning C++ first.
I actually have bought a C++ book (C++ Primer, 4th edition) but from giving it a glance, the actual language semantics look vastly different than C#, aside from the use of the curly braces and the case-sensitivity.
I’m actually pretty comfortable with those things already, so should I just start with learning C#?
Any advice is appreciated!
EDIT: Also, I know that I should probably make this a seperate thread, but does anyone know of any decent programming LOGIC books? You know, to give me the basis foundation for everything else.. keep in mind that I don’t have a CompSci degree so I don’t have the Calculus skills (yet.. I’m going back for my bachelor’s in like two months and Calculus is a required course). ARE there even books on programming theory that DON’T assume you know Calculus?? Thanks again.
