Hey guys. What is a good programming language to start learning the ropes of programming?
I plan on taking some courses in spring, when I gather up some money, but I want to know some of the basics until then. I learned very basic Pascal and HTML, no C, during highschool ( and by basic I mean, doing a very basic/ugly web page or doing a small program that does x+y). Are C/C++/Python/Ruby good choices ? If so, which one should I try first? What are your opinions ?

Haskell
COBOL
I started with fortran
how much of that C is the linux kernel?
