I really want to start learning C#/C++ and i want to know if there is any other coding laguages i would need to know so that learning it would be a lot easier to understand. I know HTML, CSS and JS. Is that enough or would i need to know PHP and MySqul as well? Thanks

No, you're pretty much set to learn them. The order doesn't really matter in terms of how you learn them. But knowing javascript will help for sure, the concepts are very similar.

A lot of the things you get used to in javascript simply don't apply to C++. I wouldn't say its the best language to start from, but the syntax is similar. I would start with C# if you use windows. Its a good stepping stone on the route to C++, or you could just use C# completely and save yourself a lot of pain.

I'm just saying if you try pretty much anything you learn from JS in C++ it throws a fit and consumes your will to live.

Thanks everyone And is C# similare to JS then? Not really. C# is a step closer to Java than anything else. I'm just saying if you try pretty much anything you learn from JS in C++ it throws a fit and consumes your will to live. I don't think Eric was trying to say that you can directly apply much of anything from JavaScript into a C++ application. But rather the syntax JavaScript uses is based directly off of C, which is C++'s predecessor. As such someone with a background in JS might pick up on the language a little quicker than someone without, solely due to being familiar with the basic syntax.
