Is it bad to learn 2 programming languages at once ?

Question

I completed the C++ course on sololearn and I feel like I have learned everything I need to know about it , so I started to learn another language , Java because it is too similar to C++ , but I am starting to feel everything is getting mixed up , so should I continue learning Java or should I stick with C++ for a longer time ?

Answer 1

Ofcourse not, sololearn is not able to teach you on its own. What you should do, is get confident with C++ first. CODE first, a lot, if you haven't already and then try learning something else. At last sololearn does not even contain the half of what you should actually know about C++, not only they are not clear(in my opinion) but it is also missing basic concepts, like vectors, lambdas, threads, smart pointers, structs, function pointers, unions etc. Definatly stick to it, and it will be easier for you to learn Java later.
