I do tech support.

I like to study (at home, not at a school)

I've done a bit of Access and VB.net I have my CCNA but i never seen a job looking for CCNA. I like anything in computers i think.

My friend said i should learn MySQL, but isn't it too advanced for someone that doesn't really know programming? What do YOU recommend me?



Answer
I recommend studying opensource distros. Most of the company nowadays are using opensource. A good start to learn linux is visiting this page http://www.linuxdatum.info

http://linuxdatum.info/tutorials provides detailed Linux tutorials and administration guides.

Good Luck!

Answer
There is no "best" language.

If you were in a corporate environment, they'll already have a talent pool, and so, your best bet would be to start with that.

If you are to be a consultant, then, you need to learn a variety - not "the best".

However, the most common would be .NET (which means VB.NET and C#), and Java. If you learn these, you cover most territory.

If you are new to the industry, you won't easily get a job doing low-level programming, like assembler, C, or C++. These are not good starting points, and to get these jobs you tend to need to be eased into it - like from college or from within the company.

But, the language is the easy part. Learning the libraries is the tough part. In the business world, you have to have understanding about...

_files (locking, io, performance, sequential access, random access, buffers),

_databases (sql, connections, pools, concurrency, isolation, normalization, indexing, etc),

_XML (structure, parsing, building, accessing elements, xpath, transformations, etc),

_SOA,

_SOAP,

_webservices (ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, JSP)

And you should know about best practices, so you need to know about development methodologies and design patterns.

I could go on, I don't mean to discourage, but really - you should take a course in computers to decide what language suits you the best, where that language is typically used, and then target that industry.

You can't just learn C and then go out job hunting. It just doesn't work that way.
