Which Programing language should I start out with?

Hello, I was just looking online of the different versions of visual studio express editions Beta 2 for windows vista, because I want to start making my own games, and 3d applications. Maybe some apps that can run on the WPF. I’m new of all of this and I came across VB, C#, and C++. I really don't know the difference in between the three, and I don’t know which one will be the appropriate edition to start out with for a first time user, and be able to do the things I need when I learn it. And do I need this SQL? I know it says it’s a data base but I’m not exactly sure what that is, how it works, or what I would need it for, or if I need it at all. Any way I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone can give me to guide me in the right direction. Thank you very much.

This order is best:








VB, C++, C#





SQL is not technically a programming language. Unless you are going to be a database analyst, there are only a few SQL scripts you'll need to know.





BTW, go ahead and get the Visual Studio Expression Web Beta. It's the best free tool you'll ever get your hands on to learn to program especially for the Web.





It has tutorials in it for all the stuff like HTML, XHTML, DHTML, it also has everything you will need to learn VB...and more.
Reply:C/C++/C# i wouldn't go with VB because its too kindergarten tool.
Reply:SQL is handy if you'll be storing any sort of data in quantity (records, searching, lookup, etc)





I recommend C++ if you're going to be making games...if you find C++ too tough use C#. VB is obsolete.
