I want to begin learning how to program, and i briefly did pascal at my short time in college, i have been told to start off on C, is it worth starting Microsofts Visual c#?

Should i start on Microsoft Visual C#?
If you are interested in a robust and strong understanding of computer programming, you should start with C and then move to c#. C is a more base-level language, whereas c# abstracts functionality so that you don't have to worry about the particulars of common programming problems. This is, of course, very helpful when developing real-world applications, but the problem is that if you start with c#, you may have a hard time understanding what is going on "underneath the hood", which will lead to an inability to troubleshoot when things do go wrong.





Ultimately, however, you should eventually learn c# no matter what - the job market for c# programmers is unbelievably strong right now - the relative salary and job availability make it silly not to learn c#.
