Looking sto start programming

Hi /prog/ I use to do programming in high school, but I didn't do so well, but now I feel like I would like to try again, what compilers and resources would you suggest for me to use? We used borland C++ in high school, but I completely forgot how to compile with it. thanks in advanced.

You should start by getting a decent computer programming education. http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/full-text/book/book.html

this thread needs to be stickied or something
