Its that time again (suggest a language)

Name: Anonymous 2007-04-26 3:48 ID:WgsXgi3d

What's the best language for a complete beginner to pick up and learn?

I'm able to read through sources in various languages and understand whats happening on a fundamental level.

I want to learn a language over the next 3~5 months and i cant make any informed desicions on which.

Suggest the language best suited to an entry level programmer.

OP here:

>>52
MMORPGS!!!!

LOL jk, ive got a couple of ideas for different little tools for my os.

Basicly i just want to make a couple of tools that will interface with various other parts of the operating systems. nothing seriously major at this point just toys and tools that will make things i do regularly (that seem awkward or convolouted) much more straight forward.

For instance ive got a daughter whos always downloading HUEG files, she has a torrent client, p2p probably limewire or ares or some shit, downloads running in msn and itunes running with always over 9000 files saturating my bandwidth.
When i need to free up some bandwidth i go through the process of going into
start... run... cmd... netsend [ipaddy] <msg>
I figure i could easily start out by coding a nice little gui wrapper that interfaces with netsend directly thusly saving myself like 2 minuites a week.
Something simple like a box that allows me to type message contents, and a pulldown server setup (like ventrillo)

Ive got ideas for hundreds of little pojects like this that although not major accomplishments, will save me a few seconds and more importantly give me the motivation to actualy get off my ass and learn to code.
Hence the reason ive never actualy googled around to see if any of them actualy already exist.

Besides im heading back to college and will be forced to write bus route programs and shit that will basicly use arrays, loops and conditional statements.

So for the tl;dr crowd, nothing major just some shitty little tools and very likely assignment work.
