Barely, and following a tutorial, and I probably couldn't do it again from memory. And when ran it just displayed the text 'Hello World', (and once I got my grubby fingers around a very basic understanding), "ALL YOUR COMPUTER IS ASPLODE IN 27 minutes. Minutes NOT MINUTES."

You have started down a path toward great power. Use judgement, padawan, for overconfidence leads to the dark side. The easy way is not always the right way, and often leads to memory leaks.

Not sure if dem's fighting words.
I'm just trying to get my feet wet in the arcane programming world before college hits and leaves me smeared against the wall. Though I think I'm actually going to be learning visual basic first, so I may go look that up.

My C++ textbook arrived a few days ago. 1000 pages of programming goodness. 

@Cheryl: Thanks for a wonderful community. It is a pleasure and honor to be a part of it.

Come unto the Java world, young grasshopper. Our software is free, our compilers are free, our development tools are free...
... it's all free. Microsoft makes you pay for everything... a LOT.
Join us. We are the Rebel Alliance and we will destroy the .NET Death Star.
(Love ya, Arch

No choice.
It's just what the college does. I plan on learning a few others though, just make my resume perhaps stand out a bit when I gradjiate.
