I read all day, read all night, on programming... I do admit my advance in style and skills but is there a point when I feel confident...Know matter how much I learn I feel that I am still behind the ball. I dont know why I like to program but I find my self trying new ideas and things like " I wonder what will this do" type stuff. Is it mandatory that I have to learn various languages?? I honestly want to but is that going to confuse what I know now (I programm in c++)

It''s very good that you like to try new things out, that''s what helps you learn! If you''re not sure how something works and you want to know then make a test app tell help you out. It is not a requirement to learn multiple languages and if you feel that you might become confused by learning more than one, then I would stick to just one. I think it''s best to only take on another language when you feel you are ready.

Hey, I've been programming since 1982, professionally since 1999, and in the game industry since last year, and I *still* feel like I am behind the ball. As long as it motivates you to keep learning/trying new things, don't worry about it.

Noone can ever learn enough, which is a good thing otherwise we''d run out of "COOL! It actually worked !" moments. Man i love them.
