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.

Clearly they aren't the same language. However, a loop is a loop.

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.

Not really. C# is a step closer to Java than anything else.

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.
