Other high-level 'scripting' languages
Perl
- http://www.perl.com/
- Very powerful, especially string operation & regular expression.
- Traditionally heavily used in bioinformatics. Many applications, such as Gbrowse (used in XenBase), and EnsEMBL, are still using it.
- Almost everything is available at CPAN (The Comprehensive Perl Archive Network).
- Learning PERL is great book to learn how to program in general.

- http://www.bioperl.org/wiki/Main_Page (BioPERL - collection of PERL modules related to biology)
Ruby
- https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/
- A kind of hybrid of PERL and object-oriented language.
- Get popular by huge success of 'Ruby On Rails' web framework.
- https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/
- https://pine.fm/LearnToProgram/ )"Learn to Program"
- https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/quickstart/ (Ruby in 20 min.)
- Relatively new language, so it also provides Ruby from other languages.
Real 'programming' languages
C/C++
Java
- Eclipse is highly recommended IDE for Java development
- http://www.mindviewinc.com/Books/TIJ4/ ("Thinking In Java" by Bruce Eckel) 3rd edition for free

- Microsoft Visual Studio Express will be your friend.
Languages for the web
