Learn To Program Free

One of the activities that I did when I bought my PC was to learn programming. There are many programming languages that can be learned free in the Internet. One is Liberty BASIC which is derived from the traditional BASIC language, and then there is Just BASIC. Although the later is a watered down version of the former, the fun thing about Just BASIC is that you can create a .exe file from that language for free, i.e., a stand-alone program. The two languages above works on Windows XP.

If you are adventurous enough there are free tutorials for Java and Python languages. To be honest I have learned the basics of these two object-oriented programming languages in their websites, Java Tutorials, and Python.org. Java is a complex language but I was surprised with the way Python’s syntax are written—the syntax is much more like BASIC and reads like English. I have learned from Internet forums, Python is a very powerful programming language. You might like to try to download the free pdf Think Python (note this pdf discusses python 2. Latest version is 3).

Going back to Just BASIC, I have written a program called The Pythagorean Triple Generator.
