How hard is it to lean C or C++ programming, compared to learning HTML? Complete noob.?

C and C++ are programming languages, HTML is a markup language. C++ evolved from C. C++ is also object oriented. C++ is still very popular while C is not commonly adopted for new development but it is still used in many legacy systems. HTML is not used for programming as an HTML expert you were not exposed to programming constructs such as loops, decisions, classes, etc. You have probably mastered some type of scripting language if you have spent any time with HTML. If you can program in javascript, you can probably pick up C++. The syntax is somewhat similar and the concepts are overlapping.

It's logic intensive but not much harder. I'd start with PHP web programming language if I were you. That way you can use a language that does similar things as C without leaving the platform you are familiar with.

C, C++ is infinitely harder than HTML. I taught myself HTML in 2 to 3 weeks. C, C++ I spent a whole year on. And that was with 3 other languages that I knew before then. The thing that makes C so hard is that it is base. You have to control everything. Learning how to use pointers and prevent memory holes is a real chore.. I would suggest that you pay to take a class on it. It would be well worth what you pay for it. I currently am working doing DBase programming for a large residential builder.

the only way to lean C or C++ is to buy a book and lean it on the shelf.

it is hard if it took you 1 week to learn html it will take you 1 month to learn c if it took you 1 month to learn html it will take you 3-4 months to learn c just think like this in some schools, c is a complete course ... and many noobs try to score an A in it so its 4 months..

thy're both different, HTML is way easier than C or C++

Me being a student of programming from my secondary school and that of c++ since my 11th grade, i have not yet been able to be more than a student, just on knowledge basis. i am not trying to discourage but encourage you its the field in programming that is more vast than quantum physics or space exploration. you need not explore world to know c++ you just have to explore your own mind to be a c++ programmer. don't worry to learn c++, its what make you what you should be in this field. and that of comparing learning html with c++, i can, its like buttering your toast with all the process of sowing grain to making toast + making butter by raising cattle in the farm. The best part of C++ is that you will be learning it your entire life and you will always be its student and not a master.

Not easy. HTML is a page display language which uses a lot of tags which are nearly intuitive to an english-speaker. Tags are rarely if ever used in C and C++. C is a very condensed language which takes the names of some of its functions from abreviations of English words (printf for print format, scanf for scan format getc for get character) and in a few cases (% for mod ?: for if) uses single characters as names for these functions. Further, with C in particular you are getting deeper into the guts of programming, what Rudy Rucker calls the computer's DNA where the difference between data and executable code is the programmer says that it's one or another. I'm serious. It's not that difficult for a badly-written program to try to execute the area of memory which contains Cousin Charlie's email or a bitmap of those cute kittens. If by HTML you're including javascript and vbscript, then maybe, yes, C++ is a good next step. Generally learning to program seriously is a good next step anyhow, but you had better remember that the the interpreter which is your web browser has been protecting you from a lot of hairy stuff which compilers for those two languages in particular generally don't. After fourteen years of programming in C and C++, I am still very concerned about it, for all the jokes I make socially about being a reckless fool.
