I am very interested in developing software. I read the deitel book on C programming.
Book explained a lot on coding.
Now I want to learn how to develop a proper interactive software i.e myob, skype, media player.
what should I do next.Is there a way to acquire knowledge fast on programming?
thank you for your time.

    Hey go for Visual Basic 2008 for Dummies! Its an awesome book you can follow for Win32 applications with a great user interface.

    If you want to develop a proper software then you have to study software engineering. Software is not just coding, coding is only a small part of any software. You have to consider a lot of other factors too. My recommendation, read software engineering by Ian Somerville.

    Now that you have learnt C program, I recommend you go for Windows API programming using C. It is not very difficult but you will have to write a lot of code if you want to create software like media players, skype ...

    I recommend you get started with Windows API or GTK+, so that you are clear with basics. This will prepare you for future programming. A lot of people will recommend .NET or JAVA, but in my opinion these technologies don't teach you "real programming" but they teach you how to reuse what has already been coded.

    I guess preparation of what you said was not needed at this moment, for him... 😀
