carey: I actually liked the way that K&R C book was written, and it does have exercises!
"Exercise 1-5. Modify the temperature conversion program to print the table in reverse order, that is, from 300 degrees to 0."
kevin: c, c++, c#, java, and python are all in demand, and once you learn one language you can learn another pretty easy.
most of these languages are based on C, so they're all practically the same thing.
c++ is "c with classes", java is "c++ without pointers/references", python is... ?
anyways, basic isn't in demand at all, but keep using it if you like it.
i was using javaFX for my own personal projects, but nobody uses that at all, even though its the best thing in java.
java has totally abandoned FX and left it to rot i think, because it wasn't as popular as swing.
i switched to mainly using c++ with QT now, its a lot like javaFX, its great.
my opinion is that learning api's is more important and more difficult than learning a language.
instead of learning multiple languages, learning multiple api's for 1 language will allow you to do more things with it.
here's some good books on python and they're all free to read
you can also buy the physical/ebook version of them to support the author
