How about designing a game.\nI presume from your question that some universitys are easier to get into now.

well, you don't need programming knowledge to write freeware games.  Go check out ScummVM at SourceForge (see source)\n\nIf you do want to learn a language, start with C.  Plenty of free compilers out there and it's not as hard as most would have you believe.\n\nJava is NOT a good suggestion.  It's hardly a revolution considering its age.  Furthermore, the only games I've ever seen written in Java are web-based.

I attached a link in sources that has a huge list of all legitimate online classes and universities. There is an extremely large section for computer programming.

get a degree in any of the following: computer science, mis (management information systems), computer engineering, electronics & communication engineering. or basically, you need to be able to understand how programs work and how they are applied to real-world problems. knowledge on different operating systems is also a big plus.\n\nhope this helps...

I think you should just take a few classes at a community college on programming.(thats what I am doing)

Game Theory is taught, but in advanced classes, usually college level. \n\nEnjoy your knowledge...try calculus next as long as you are motivated.\n\nGoogle the subject and see the colleges that offer it.

ya .. if you need to creat a softeware. you need a framwork .. and a software that can make another softwares .. \nfor exmaple ther are softwares for creating little games .\nor even there are softewares for creating simple viruses.(don't try them ;) )\nand there are some more profasional softwares like programing languges like pascal ,c,c++, or some packages like visual studio or delphi ! that using lot's of visual elements .\nif you learn one of the langueges (like human laguesges "spanish,turkish ,...") you can creat a software.

There are a lot. Do you just want to take single classes, or complete a certificate or degree program? Is it for personal enrichment, or do you hope to be able to use it to advance your career? And what sorts of computer courses are you talking about? Do you want to learn Microsoft Excel, or do you want to learn computer science?

here are a few, depending on your programming level.\n\nhard:\n*make a super computer using distributed computing for mobile phones.\n*create a simulation of a real AI system. (BOID - FLOCKING)\n*create a realtime pusdocode runner. it should have psudocode typed in by the user and the codee should be converted to C++ or Java and run while the code is being processed.\nMedium:\n*create a trafic control system for cars(how can you make the roads have fewer trafic jams) (look at flocking again)\n*make a programm that reads shreded paper documents and reorganises them into what they were.\n*make a file transfer programme for people sending inprotant documents to eachother but in a peer to peer system.\n*make a system that allows AI Agents to move autonomusly without codeing input. forexample make an AI player find the user with out being told how.\neasy:\n*make a programme to monitor kids game playing on the internet and to stop bad language and basuse in mmrpg games like runscape.\n*make a new type of secure compression for transfering credit card details over the net.\n\nhope they help. you could also ask your tutor, they should have lists of projects from previous years and you can copythem but add something extra to the project.

Have you heard of Osmania University, in Hyderabad? \nOSMANIA UNIVERSITY, Hyderabad , AP ,INDIA - Diploma will make you familiar with  Software Technology from ... allowing you to Contribute in Designing, Coding, & testing. Client.\nyou will need to also take a course in Deccansoft Software Services. \nI think the course duration is 2 -3 years.

For fresher, absolutely no need for computer courses. More practice in Quantitative analysis , C , C++, Data Structures,OS and DBMS  is more than sufficient to clear the software test papers also the recruiters do not expect professional experience from the fresh graduates. A good guidance is hundred times better than a computer course.

c or c++ are usually used for game programming, but any language can work, if they're supported on your intended target platform (windows, unix, etc.) and provide the features necessary for your project (access to accelerated graphics, for instance).\n\nat http://www.gamedev.net/reference/articles/article892.asp you can find an (in my opinion) pretty good article on how to move into game programming: start with simple things, add complexity as you go.

Fortunately you have TONS of options.  Unfortunately you have TONS of options.\n\nIf you're looking to do professional game development, learn C/C++, OpenGL, and DirectX.  There are hundreds of websites dedicated to game development that can help get you started, but my recommendation is to start with a good book that takes you through the steps with a sample game.  Most bookstores have entire sections dedicated to game development.\n\nIf you're not concenred about "professional" development and just want to try making some games quickly and easily, there are several good pre-fab tools to do so including:\n\nJamagic and Multimedia Fusion (http://www.clickteam.com),\nDarkBasic (http://www.thegamecreators.com),\nBlitzBasic (http://www.blitzbasic.com),\nTorque (http://www.garagegames.com)\n\nAll of these have an associated cost to license the software, but provide engines that handle all of the rendering, sound, and environmental complexities for you.  For the most part, you simply come up with an idea, piece it together, and add some script logic.  They're also a good springboard into more advanced topics since you get a feel for what it takes to work within a game development framework which is what most modern games are developed around.\n\nGood luck!
