Choosing the your first programming language is very hard. You need to understand what are the differences between each coding language . And most importantly, you must think about what will help you in your future career .
That being said, these days Python is one of the most chosen programming languages to learn first because of the wide use in many applications and also because of its simplicity.
It is a great step to learn more about the complex programming languages and frameworks!

Some of the most important Python applications are Automation, big data, and data mining.
Also, Python is considered ideal for general-purpose applications.

If you are new to programming and wondering which language you should start with, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. The best language to start with depends on your interests, goals, and what you want to achieve with programming. Here are some popular programming languages you can start with:

Python: Python is a versatile and beginner-friendly language that is used for various applications, including web development, data analysis, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. It has a simple syntax and is easy to read and understand, making it an excellent choice for beginners.

Java: Java is a popular programming language used for building standalone applications, web applications, and mobile applications. It is a highly in-demand skill in the job market and can lead to many career opportunities.

JavaScript: JavaScript is a scripting language used for creating dynamic and interactive web pages. It is an essential part of web development and is widely used in front-end development.

C++: C++ is a powerful language that is used for building software, games, and operating systems. It has a steep learning curve, but once mastered, it can lead to many career opportunities.

Swift: Swift is a programming language used for building iOS and macOS applications. It is a beginner-friendly language and an excellent choice for those interested in mobile app development.

In conclusion, the best programming language to start with depends on your interests and goals. Python and Java are excellent choices for beginners, while JavaScript and C++ are great for those interested in web development and software development. Swift is an excellent choice for those interested in iOS and macOS app development.

Due to the numerous "i want to start programming, which language should i start with" threads on this board i decided to create a thread that will address this issue. I am not a wonderful writer and i won't say i know it all but i will try. I urge every one on this board to correct me where i err an also contribute in whatever way you can to make this thread worth it. I will try as much as possible not to be biased in this write up.

I am not going to go into detail in defining what programming is because i will assume before entering this thread you should already know what programming is. But in summary programming is the act of creating whatever you want with your brain and computer programming is the act of creating whatever you want with your brain and a computer.

Programmers could also be called software programmers, software developers and other big-big names you can think of.

My dear when I saw the response me self tire! You can learn web dev with core 2 duo self. These are textual elements with few visuals especially at the backend level.

Please, start with 1st gen self if you have. Provided you have at least 4GB and 80GB storage self. Win 10 and visual code can be installed on it with live server plug in to see what you are coding live.

Freecodecamp and W3schools will help you. Relax and start with the basic front end of HTML5 and CSS, then you can move to python or javascript but python is preferable if you ask me.

From there you can learn SQL if you are interested in data science. My dear as you start, begin to look for projects you can work on for free. Have the mindset of solving problems, think up problems you can resolve with each language you acquire.

Mind, if you do not put them to use, you'd forget them easily.

My 2 cents.

I be like I’m lost., I’m being like where have I been all this while like I’m not part of this world anymore ..

I concur. There is no reason to pay anyone to learn programming. Everything you need, tutorials, tools, etc. are all free online. You just have to have the passion and be dedicated. There is no free lunch anywhere. It will take a lot of time and effort to become good at it. Programming is in demand and pays well for a reason.

I want to know. If I learn C, C++, JAVA and C# in that order, what does that make me in tech? I mean what will I call myself?
Re: I Want To Learn Programming. Which Language Should I Start With? by Bossman(m): 5:37pm On Mar 31, 2023
I would not advice you to learn all 4. I would suggest you learn one of the Object Oriented Programming ones (Java, C++, C#) and master it very well.

Why do you think I shouldn't learn all four? I thought they were all connected in a career path.
Secondly, of the three in bracket, which do you advise that I learn?

You can learn all 4 if you want. But it will take some time to be very proficient in all 4. Of the languages I mentioned, I will suggest Java. It is more in demand at the moment.
