So would you say it would be advantageous for aspiring Flash programers to
learn C#?
Or leave it alone, not needed? I hear they are very similar as well.
I was wondering what the benefits would be.
I would get comfortable with AS3 and programming in general before
attempting to tackle a second language.
It's always useful to learn other languages, but choose something
complimentary such a server-side scripting language - PHP, C# whatever.
I have coded in C++ many years ago and am more than happy to leave it
behind.

AS3 and C# are very similar, yes.
I think it's advantageous for aspiring programmers to learn more than
one language, especially if one of the languages they're learning is
domain-specific, like AS3. I think C# would be a fine choice for an
alternate language to learn, although it might actually be better to
choose something that isn't so similar, like Python.
