HTML and CSS are markup/style languages, not actual programming languages. My recommendation would be to learn Java, Python, and/or JavaScript. They are all high level languages (easy to understand and fun to program in!). While languages like C++ are old, annoying, and losing popularity.

I beg to differ. The strongest language is usually decided as C++. Java coming in a close second. C++ may be hard but it is definately the most powerful. And once you use it regulary, then you will become fluent in it and whip out cool applications in minutes.

gcc as my compiler and vim. I went from vc++, to codeblocks, to a text editor called vim and compiling it on the command line.
