^^ Just what I had in mind. Nice!

There is nothing wrong if you start programming learning C++. With C++11, C++14 and C++17 on the way, you really don't have to master C, to get your hands dirty. However, it depends on what you will like to major on. But even at that you can't be wrong knowing some stuff with either C++ or C.
Then like someone previously mentioned. You can even start up with JavaScript. That language has a lot to offer these days than many people even realised. I will even prefer it to python in so many ways.
However in the end languages are just tools. I will also advice to check the pin write on this forum too.
Hope this helps.

For you to learn programming, it is highly recommended to start from the smallest programming language, I would have agreed with the person that said HTML and JavaScript but I think that's not it. You learn HTML and JavaScript if you want to become a web designer or web developer (web programmer) but to learn programming in quote I will advise you to start with QBasic.

I am a lecturer in John Bosco Institute of Technology in the Computer Science department and I create programs so I know what you are passing through just beleive me and start with QBasic and you will see how easy programming can be to learn.

Get started today by visiting my website http://www.winzsolution.com/programming/qbasic-programming-tutoria/ to learn QBasic programming language for 14 days.

You can also find things that may be interested in like Learn HTML, JavaScript and CSS in 21 days.

Many people who have interest in
programming end up loosing their
enthusiasm after venturing into
programming because they choose the
wrong programming language. It said that
a journey of 1 thousand starts in a mile, so
to start programming one is advise to start
from the smallest program then advance
to the bigger ones. If not so, the person is
likely to loose focus and drop
programming. (sorce winzsolutiins) i like that

That programming is step by step doesn't state the language people start with. You can still learn step by step using any programming language of your choice. The only difference is the learning curves.
Everybody doesn't have to start with HTML, especially when one is not majoring in web designs. In fact, starting with those languages that people "believed" to be difficult even gives a better perspective for others "supposedly" easy ones. Which for me is the way to go. Often times the difficulties is in the saying of many.

I agree.
As far as am concerned one can start with whichever he chooses, java, c#, python, just to name a few.
As a matter of personal opinion I would start with any of the three above.

Take It
1. Html 2. CSS 3. JavaScript (best way to get into OOP ) - bridge - (Now you'll decide what kind of programmer you want to be.
if web development: try
4. Php 5. MySQL (Bootstrap, Node.js,... )
If something else... like GUI stuffs and Application / game creation: try
4. Python (nice way to jump into... ) 5. C++/ C 6. Java ...I'll update this post later... ba3 low pls.
