Learning pascal at school now, and learning C# as a side project. Though really the pascal is the side project, it's a joke of a language.
I tried GLua, but it made my head explode so I gave up :v:
One day I asked my dad how you make games (I don't know why I asked about games and not applications in general :v:). I had no idea he was an old programmer. So he introduced me to Turbo Pascal, and maybe 2 years later I decided to learn C++.
learned from tutorials and books and looking over people's code helped me alot.
My grandfather taught me Assembly "yes assembly" when I was 12. He worked with AT&T and did all that stuff. After a year or so I wanted to make websites so I tought myself HTML with all those For Dummies Books and just been doing that for the past 3 years, next year I take Computer Science and learn C++ and Java.
I'm learning through online tutorials and eBooks. It's extremely hard to learn since I can't really ask anyone to help me out. And I pretty much need to figure everything out myself.
I taught myself C++ from a massive, old book
When I'd read through the entire book, I pretty much just started programming whatever I wanted, turning to the internet for help frequently
I'm taking an intro to programming (c++) class at my college (Uni) right now.
Started some real basic C# stuff while I was in high school, learning Java while I'm in uni now.
Learning the concepts was the key obstacle, I can bring most if not all of the stuff I've learnt from Java to C#, and can now learn on my own a lot easier.
Self-taught myself basic scripting in a game.
Watched some 3D Buzz C++ tutorials.
Used the Internet for the rest.
I asked my dad when I was 8 to teach me programming. He legit through a programming book in my face. I've been teaching my self for about 15 years to spite him. You'll learn on your own more than any class (save some really advanced bit manipulation).
Google is my textbook, and forums my classroom.
I started at home with a

and a book like this.

I then started on C at college
At home using the internet. That's it.
I'm currently taking intro to C++. You should have seen how happy I was yesterday when I created a program that displayed a triangle made of *
I started doing a project in CoolBasic with a cousin of mine and later on started studying C++ by myself.
