Learning a scripting language.

[Dervish]

Hi, I've been away a little while.

I would like to learn a scripting language but I do not know which one to learn.

Could you please recommend a language designed to make programs or smaller utilities.

I have a goal in life which is semi-tied to this and I might talk about it later.

P.S : I am not leaving SCAR, absolutely not. I will release a script in December, on Christmas, the same day I will have been at SRL for 2, fantastic years.

Thanks in advance and have a good day.

I've heard Java is good for utilities, otherwise if your looking to kill some time and at the same time make utilities, I recommend VB 6 (don't be fooled, it is extremely good if you know how to code)

Try any of the Visual Express products from Microsoft.
They're really easy to learn new programming languages with, and you can make good applications.

C++ FTW!

How about... ..Python?

Visual Basic looks promising, I'll try it out. Thank you +R.

PHP is actually quite fun to learn, I've only been learning it for a while, but I really like it so far.

I know PHP, and its very fun, but I would do python.
