i'm currently in my first year of a civil engineering degree but i'm really not enjoying the course. i'm considering dropping out and am looking at careers in computer programming. I have no experience with programming and am a bit stuck with where to start.
What qualifications/degree would I need to be a programmer? Where can I find out more information about this career?
I want to teach myself some basics in programming but I dont really know how/where to begin. Could anyone suggest a good language to start with or any good books/websites that explain the very basics?
Thanks
