I have never coded anything in my whole life (except some minor html and xml editing) and thought I should just try. Would actually like to try something different as I am a bit annoyed by US-english everywhere, and have been puzzle over the thought of compiling something with UK-english or perhaps Norwegian? Maybe make html coding available with UK-english instead of the US variant? Don’t know if this is already done or if it is really possible, and, further, if the Z/Z++ language will make any difference. But I saw Z/Z++ derived from the UK, and just thought for the hell of it:|
Doubt it’s a good language to start with, I’ve never head of it either so help resources/tutorials are most likely in short supply.
If you want to start out with something I recommend PHP, then you can put your html knowledge to use as well
Good place to start out with php is PHP Tutorial
Agreed… while most languages seem to focus on English learning a
language nobody knows isn’t going to be as useful (aside from perhaps
basic concepts) as something a bit more portable, like C or Java or Perl.
Good luck.

Yes, the language do exist, or perhaps did? It should be a variant of z, Z notation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, as an object oriented extension. I actually got to know about it a while ago, from an application or something I think, probably through a dependency issue as I sometimes compile from source, but can’t quite remember. Strange, though, as it seems so rare.
Even though it looks interesting I’m a supporter of Axeia’s suggestion, PHP is easy to learn and gives you a good idea of programming then you could progress to a more “programming” language.
Edit: Just found out that the IDE is for Windows only, that really made me lose my interest…
Java depends on JVM. So the code is absolutely portable. Java has no pointers… in Java every reference is a pointer… (except in few special cases). I don’t like Z++.

Yeah, that’s it. If they have an IDE (probably written in Z++) then it should be run under Linux - but it’s available just for Windows. IMHO, the Yes in Z++'s column isn’t fair against Java.
This email is to follow up with you after downloading and trying out our Z++ Visual IDE. Since then we have released our Z47 processors for Windows Mobile and Pocket PC with more mobile OS’s on the way. We have also recently released the ’09 version of our IDE with several new features. Our development platform, which includes the ’09 IDE, is specifically designed to help make creating software easier for developers as well as giving companies major savings in development time (up to 50%) and maintenance costs (up to 90%). I am attaching our latest press release that goes over many of these new features.
FYI, we have a Linux version of our ’09 IDE coming out soon which has all the same features and functionality as our Windows ’09 IDE.
So it seems like they are making a Linux version of their IDE. plus they’ve also released a reference manual and some free lessons (in PDF format).
