Your question is far too vague and is thus very difficult to answer.
One possible approach would be to start with programming paradigms, such as procedural or imperative programming (such as Pascal or C), object-oriented programming (C++, Java), functional programming (Lisp, Scheme, Haskell), logic programming (Prolog), declarative programming (make, regexes, grammars), constraint programming, and so on. The cited languages are just examples, many of them are not belonging to only one of the paradigms. Perl is pretty much multi-paradigm.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
