What language should I start with? I tried learning C++ but cant get past pointers and arrays without being totally confused

. Maybe theres other languages that makes pointers and arrays easier then I could work up to c++? Thanks for any suggestions.

C is where you should start. C++ or other object oriented langauges will just confuse you with garbage. Learn the fundamentals.

Pointers and arrays are all about the use of memory. They are just as simple in concept as filing information on a set of bookshelves. If there are specific things that confuse you about one of the other, discuss it here and I can go into more detail.

Arrays
Read all of section 3 because it continues on to explain pointers.

Just so you know, C++ is designed to be a superset of C. Therefore a C program is also a C++ program, but not vice versa. They shares all the same basic/complex data types, syntax, control statements, operator priority, etc. C++ adds in (read: hacks) object oriented concepts (inheritence, polymorphism, overloading, default params, etc).
