Folks, HTML & CSS are not programming languages !! . Op, I will encourage you to start with Python or Ruby, these are very easy languages and fun to learn. Then if you are curious enough, you might wanna move up to C#. It's very difficult since it's a low-level (Machine) language but that will give you a solid foundation as a programmer. Then after that, you can move into more Object oriented programs like Java, C++ and JavaScript. Hope that helps! 3 Likes |

Php first - but the thing is that, if you become so good in Php, you will be reluctant to learn other languages. I started from the very basic - Basics & Fortran. Then V basic, C# & little of C++ before embracing Php for web development & Php Clie. After Php, it took me a very long time to have an interest in improving on my Java, C++ and learning other languages 1 Like 1 Share |

micodon: What else do you expect from a bunch of charlatans? OP, to build websites from scratch, you'll need to master html and css. That's just for the design aspect of building websites. To add some programming to your websites, that is to make web applications, you'll need to master some javascript and php for a start... |

HTML is not a programming language, yes. CSS is not also a programming language, viola. Here is my verdict... Since you want to learn web development, start with those. Especially if you are coming from a none programming or computer science field. Afterwards, focus on JavaScript, very important. As a developer you can earn a decent living and can do virtually anything oon the web with js. Then proceed to any server side scripting language. You can use virtually any of the mordern programming language for server side. For me, start with php, bcs it is easier to understand. Especially if you understand tthe basic concepts of programming in JavaScript. Alternately you can go for Python, Java, etc. But choose one and focus your attention 2 Likes |

It is true that HTML CSS and JavaScript Are not programming language but HTML and CSS should be the first thing to learn After move to python or php I will advise you to go for php after return to JavaScript |

Face it and go for c++ or java. No time. Its a lot to learn in these two anyway or either one. 8 hours everyday for 6 months. Lots of practice. Don't forget to go outside for a walk and fresh air, eat, and have fun. 2 Likes |

Most answers here are correct to an extent. Here's my one naira opinion. It's pointless to ask if a nail is better than a saw or a plier because they are tools for different jobs. So IMO - before prescribing a best language for learning, I'd ask - "What do you want to do?" Do you want to make games, develop websites, write mobile apps, desktop software... or break into websites? If you know, picking the right language for the job will be a piece of cake. If you don't know, just start with any language cos it doesn't really matter. The main principles such as functions, variables, input, output, loops... apply across all programming languages. Note: Language choice isn't a big deal. If the first one you choose doesn't meld with you, pick something else. Good luck. |
