The only sort of programming you can learn in a week is "lightweight" scripting tools like VBScript. You can also learn the basics of SQl querying in a few days (provided you've been exposed the database mgt systems before). Lets not forget you need loads of theory stuff if you have never written or known any language. All that said, what makes a programmer is the amount of "debugging", "failed projects", "trial and errors" you've had. In a lay man's language: the years of experience you've put in. You only learn by doing. If you've never been held captive by a misplaced dot in your code for hours, you will never experience the full beauty of coding. Search for "w3schools" on google. Might get you on your way. |

You dont need books right now, You need a mentor. Someone who's actually making money/ building great stuff with programming languages. That will be more useful to you than trying to learn it in one week (next thing you know you'll be trying to build facebook the next week. All things must go thru a process of refinement). Get someone who will not only teach you but show you how to enjoy it. |

agi-tuedor:yes, a good programmer can write codes so solve mathematical problems, input and output characters and numbers, write simple subroutine and block/ structured codes. a proffessional however can write a real world working applications. |

@Mobinga, I learnt on my own but I would have progressed faster if I had someone to mentor me. Went in a lot of useless directions before fully realizing WHY i wanted to program and WHAT kinds of applications I was interested in building. |
