Replies Crazy snake Posted at 12:45 pm on Mar. 21, 2008 Well.... I'm no expert on programming, but I'll try to help: There are a couple of programming languages you could try. C++ and Java are the most commonly known ones. C++ is hard to learn though, and you'd seriously need to do a course in it. There are websites that help, but its hard to learn off them alone. Python is another programing language you could try, and my cousin says its easier than C++ to learn. You could try the book: Computer programing for dummies, but I think none of those books make sense anyway. You could google: Learn C++ or Learn Python and see what comes up. The only thing I've ever learned from google is html, and I'm USELESS at it Seriously, the best way to learn a programing language is to do a course, and even though you have no money, you could wait for a while and save up. I'm not sure what works specificaly with Macs, but I think Python and C++ are universal. marshmellowman Posted at 12:45 pm on Mar. 21, 2008 You'll have to learn Cocoa and Objective-C to start programming for OS X.
