I have just started to master pascal code, i know this is just a training language and you can't do alot with it but i heard once you learn one language it is easy to convert to another and so how can i go about doing this, possibly VB or C.

The reason people say it's easier to learn your second programming language, is that the hard part for most people is learning how to think like a programmer: how to think in terms of data, program flow, conditionals and storage. With this in mind, you'll find it easy to learn other languages with a similar paradigm. VB and C are both similar enough that you'll just have to learn a new syntax. An object oriented language will look similar, but have different ways of thinking to learn. The same with a functional language like Haskell. All are good for learning about different ways of solving programmable problems. The best way to get started in a new language, I've found, is to sit down with a series of simple tasks you'd like to do, a few example programs, and a reference guide (or a tutorial you'll use as a reference). Actually getting small programs to work is the best way forward, even if all they do is ask the user questions and shuffle the responses around.
