> What programming languages or technologies to learn to get the best paying career possible

There's no good answer to this question. Technologies changes every few years. Python pays well now but in a few years the Shakespeare Programming Language could be the go-to language /s. If you want the best paying career possible learn the fundamentals. They are almost universal to every programming language and is the reason why good programmers can pick up languages quickly.

That being said, here's a copypasta when I helped someone else.

  • IDE:
    • (integrated development environment) This is your "Microsoft Word" for programming.
    • I recommend NetBeans or Eclipse. Atom is a great IDE I just picked up and I love it.

  • Concepts:
    • variables (data types)
    • if statements
    • for loops
    • while loops
    • method
    • classes
    • Objects
    • constructors
    • arrays
    • There's a lot of little things in programming languages and, when you start it's hard to figure out what's important and what's not. These are the concepts you'll see early on that should stand out as important.

  • Resources (Beginner):
    • I learned Java in college so I did not use these resources. However, I have looked at them and they seem to cover the important parts.
    • Java For Dummies. If your dissuaded by a "For Dummies" book don't be! They are very clearly written and cut out all the useless bits that just confuse people.
    • Udemy. If you look under the "Programming Core Java" you'll see A LOT of what I mentioned in the my concepts section.

  • Resources (Intermediate):
    • After you've gotten comfortable with the stuff in the "concepts" section you're probably ready for this.
    • Projects are the BEST way to learn. At this point Youtube videos and blog tutorials will only help so much.
    • Look for simple projects you can do. GitHub can help.
    • Write a To-Do list application
    • Write a countdown/timer application
    • Take in a list of something and put it in alphabetical order

well ... programming is a thing you do, so he's right. The book we used when I learned is Murach's Java [(http://www.amazon.com/Murachs-Java-Programming-Joel-Murach/dp/1890774650/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1377047908&sr=8-1&keywords=murach%27s+java)]

I really like the Murach style and format

Oh here is a quote from the author - "Developers often tell me they wish they'd found our Java book first, before spending time and money on others. They also say it's the book they turn to when they're getting ready to learn Android programming.

*edit ok why does my link look like that?

I would normally caution anyone using Android Studio this soon,but Eclipse feels just about as buggy as alpha software sometimes. "Where'd my project folder go? #$%@!! FU Eclipse!!!" :) Anyhow... it'll probably get the job done,just know its a very early software release.

Programming Android 2nd Edition multiple authors. ISBN:1449316646
AMAZON
A really useful book when you're trying to figure out the android framework or maybe a certain api. It doesn't cover EVERYTHING,but it'll get you going with most of the framework. It provides useful input on using Java with android as well. But still uses Eclipse and the ADT. Good luck!

Google has some pretty good official resources for getting started:
http://developer.android.com/training/index.html

If you want a book, check out Programming Android.

If you're interested in a full course with videos, Udacity and Google recently
partnered on one: https://www.udacity.com/course/ud853

I really liked this book. I wasn't sharp on Java and completely new to Android dev and it helped me understand the system better. Other than it I just use the examples on http://developer.android.com/training/index.html and that really got me started.
