A language to make programs with. You write a lot of command in the programming language and then you need a parser, compiler or interpreter to execute the program.

C++ is a programming language. A compiler is a program that has the programming code as input and a program as output

So, you start by saying you don't know what a programming language is, and two hours later you are planning to make a 3D game?

there are 2 main stlye programming languages.
C and C++ both are simulart but C++ is more fancy looking. common use is C
then u have 2 grafic options for good gamming Direct X (halo,half-life,UT engin) then u have OpenGL (the quake engins 1-3 (4),doom3). OpenGL is much more agile grafic wise than Direct X

I find it difficult to understand your typing. Please try to use more grammar and better sentence construction; not everyone here is a native English speaker.

Ninjajazz:

There is no such thing as a game programming language. There are programming languages that can be used to make games, but there are no programming languages specific to games.

C++ is by far the most common language used to program games. Buy this book: The C++ Programming Language or do a Google search for C++ Programming Tutorial.

You'll need to spend several hours familiarizing yourself with the language. Keep reading until you understand the full syntax and all of the following concepts:

  • Abstraction
  • Multiple Inheritance
  • Interfaces

    When you've mastered the C++ language, you can start learning the concepts of game programming. Do a Google search for Game Dev Enginuity and choose the first match.

    This is the first of a series of tutorials on creating a basic game engine.

    If you find yourself stuck, you probably didn't read the book. If you read the book and didn't understand it, read it again until you do.

    There is no easy way to program a game.
