    &lt;p&gt;Several of my friends have been asking me to teach them programming, so I thought that I would start posting some programming tutorials on my blog.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Basically, I would program an application in a programming language, give some background on the language, and then explain what the code is doing line-by-line.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I was thinking this could also act as a comparative programming study. If I did the same program in various different programming languages, it might be easier to see how the languages are similar and where they differ.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Soooooo.... what programming languages do you want to learn and what should I make for the example?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here are some examples to get you started:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Programming Languages&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;ASP  &lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;C++&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;C# &lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;D&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Fortran&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Haskell&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Java&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lisp&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Lua&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Perl&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;PHP&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ruby&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Python&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Smalltalk&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;TCL&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Visual Basic &lt;sup&gt;1&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Programming Examples&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Calendar&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Chat program&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Checkers game&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Drawing program&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Journal&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Text editor&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Please&lt;/strong&gt; post which programming languages that you want to learn and a simple programming example that you would like to see! Note that I don&#039;t know all the programming languages that I listed above, but I tried to hit most of the major ones and I can learn the a new one or two &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.linuxlefty.com/blog/templates/default/img/emoticons/wink.png&quot; alt=&quot;;-)&quot; style=&quot;display: inline; vertical-align: bottom;&quot; class=&quot;emoticon&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;small markdown=1&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1&lt;/strong&gt;: This is only if I can get Mono working on Linux. I&#039;ll tend to shy away from these&lt;/small&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
