No he didn't mean C# and C++ are the same thing. They are two seperate programming languages although they both originate from C. They (like just about all programming languages) have common "concepts" but the syntax are different. Syntax is basically the way you have to tell the computer the instructions(programming) to do the stuff.
Since you are just beginning programming I would reccomend C# to you just because, it is a fairly easy language to learn and it takes out most of the "bad" parts of C++.
Try learning either C# or C++. Since you already ordered C# books, learn that. C++ is very nice though. At the age of 10 I started C++ myself. But then again, some say it is bad to do that. I tried C# - its pretty nice... Try it, if you don't like it try C++.
How in the world does an Anonymous Poster have a sig?
You might eventually need some libraries to add more functionality to C#, which is something else that you will need, but Visual Studies is enough to make a C# program.

On the second reading of your post I cracked up so badly I forgot what I was about to code!
