Python is the easy way as a beginner, easy way but neither best nor worst way :) C is simple to learn (while hard to use) and helps you understand a lot about how memory is handle by your computer

Yes!!!! it realy is. It is a good language to start with as you can learn a lot of the basics within a short time. You can then use the knowledge you learnt from python to develop you understanding in other languages such as C++ as it is similar.

Largely, programming consists of two things. The ability to formulate algorithms and architectures to solve problems is one of them. The other is mastering the syntax, and resources, provided by a language and the tools that support it. Python does have a lot going for it in terms of simplicity. There is a rich set of modules associated with it. In many ways, it is "easier" to do things in python, but you still have to seek out the libraries, learn what's available, and work thru writing code to implement whatever problem you are trying to solve. I think anyone claiming it is "easy" isn't really examining all the ways that programming can, and always will be, demanding in terms of effort, and thus I would not fall into the trap of telling you python is easy. Easier in some cases, but in a great many cases, I think the effort expended is much the same as in other languages. So, just be wary of claims that python is "easy". In many ways, it's not any easier than any other language, depending on what you are doing. Algorithms and architecture, the problems you are solving, could be much more of an issue than the syntax and properties of the programming language you choose.

It's really hard for me to undrrstand python 😐 Since no bracket no semicolon This language make me like I live in Void!! Now Compare I will compare to Assembly then Pointer: Python : No true pointer there is reference only Assembly : True pointer exist User Friendly: Python : Too User Friendly So it's slow Assembly : Not user friendly at all so It's fast Dev: Python : Fast Development Assembly : Slow development but optimize

I learned python first. Then i studied C and C++. Then i went back to python and i understood the value of python so much more. The things that you can just do in Python without even thinking about it are simply amazing.

@Mohamed DZ, I said Python was easy but I examined the difficulty of programming for some years now. Building strong algorithms is not language dependant so it should not be taken into account for such a question. Yes, python syntax is easier and yes, python is easy to use compared to other programming languages (and I have tried a lot of them). But as I said, easy does not means performing and it is not the all-rounder of programming languages. For example, you can do games with Python with graphic display but it will be really, really slower than when you do the exact same thing with C or C++. And when we say Python is easy, it means compared to other programming languages of course !

Python is the easiest language in the Programming World which is also extremely powerful if utilized correctly.

I disagree. Python syntax is horrid compared to any of the C languages. Maybe it's because I learned them first back in the day, but eww.. just eww. :D It's not hard learning the C languages, so I don't think you need "training wheels" when it comes to this. You're a grown person, so just pick the language you want to learn and start learning it. ;) Best wishes to you on whatever you do!

Yes, python is one of the easiest since their is minimal syntax to remember.
