Should I complete python or do I have to switch to C/C++?

Question

Hey everybody. In my university, C and C++ are being learned. And I am now on half the way to complete python. I find it very fun and easy to use python, but I have at the same time to learn C/C++ for the C-Programming lessons. So what do you say guys? Should I stop python and switch to C or should I learn both?

Answer 1

Do you really have the choice, if your college insists on the C's?

The question would be if you have to stop learning Python so that you won't be confused, right?

I think it's possible to continue with it anyway (if you have the time, C++ is rather big).

But from now on I would try to only learn in Python, what you've already firmly understood in C.

Answer 2

You'll probably manage to keep it apart in your head.

The only important thing in my opinion is that you don't try to learn *the same* topic simultaneously in both languages.

Because then you'll likely confuse your brain where to store what, and mix things up.

Answer 3

HonFu the problem is I need python for cryptography and so on. And I need C and assembly to understand Hardware and so on... So I did not want to learn both and the forget python
