A lot of programming languages look similar to mIRC at first glance (Look at C, C++ and PHP for example) but they tend to only be similar in a few places, like using { }.
I'm sure a few people would disagree with me here, but C++ seems impossible for the first few months whether you have used mIRC scripting or not.
The hardest thing about going from mIRC to a low-level language like C++ is that you'll expect C++ to have things like left(), right(), mid(), replace(), remove(), etc., it doesn't.
Edit: getting used to data types is also a bitch when you use a language where everything is a string (Like mIRC) first.
