C# for beginners?

I would like to learn C#, but I've only ever programmed in BASIC, mainly B3D. All the tutorials I've found online seem to assume some knowledge of C++ or equivalent, even the ones for beginners. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial site genuinely aimed at beginners?

Good beginner tutorials are rare anyway. They are either explaining things a dumb way, or they are written by an expert who has forgotten what it meant not to understand programming.

If it is for game programming and xna then these this site has tutorials in c# and then xna..

You can find lots of tutorial links from the main xna website.

Bruce Eckels' "Thinking in Java" books are still the #1 tutorial for people who want to program. Once you've learned all the principles in Java, most of them can be applied to C#.

You can try this site they have a lot of videos.

Cheers for those!

or you can pick up "C# in a nutshell" from o'reillys.. :)

Isn't that more of a reference book tho'?

yeah, the last part of the book.. but the first "half" is a great introductary. :)

This site appears to teach a lot. http://www.functionx.com/csharp/

Learning new languages; find the right lines that do the same thing as in a other language. Natural english to basic to c# to C++.

Translation :
Dim a$(x,language)
