Lets see.. Programming? Javascript?

I am currently a Junior in high school, but I aspire to be a software designer. I already know some basic programming (literally, I have learned BASIC language), but I would like to learn more advanced things like javascript and C++ Objective and such. Does anyone know a website that trains you to learn these languages?

Codecademy.com

I've used code academy before. I've only done a few lessons, but I didn't like it very much. Ill give it another chance though. You're the third person who has suggested that website to me, so it must work lol.

Check out UC Berkley's ALICE programming environment, it's free and a visual way to learn the basics of objective programming. After that, go buy the for dummies series at your local bookstore on any given language. That's how I learned VB C++ and some light java.

Seeing a lot of math/science/technology type jobs here. Not surprising. Personally, I'm a Freshman in high school.. I enjoy working with technology and programming. I love physics and chemistry too.

 

[sneaklyfox]

Physics is my favourite among phys/chem/bio! Anyway, I graduated with a degree in mechanical engineering so I did that for awhile. But now I'm a private music teacher (violin and piano)... part time though. The rest of the time I'm a professional mom.
