Is Python the best programing language to learn first?

I saw many are speaking that it is a easy programing language but very powerful too. I'm just lvl3 it seems to be a little bit hard for me but useful. Is it good for beginners? Which was your first programing language u learnd?

I say no. It is very easy, almost too easy. The main problem with learning it first is that it’s syntax is so different from most languages, so you will still be starting something entirely new when you learn a good language. Also, Python is just a bad language in general because it is so unnecessarily slow. It is interpreted instead of compiled, and compiling it would just give it more speed while still keeping all of the advantages that make people think it is good. A good starting language is Java. Like Python, it is interpreted. However, it has good syntax and teaches you about some very important concepts in programming, including OOP.

syntax of python is very easy to learn which is the reason that a lot of beginners are choosing python as first language to learn. if you choose harder language like for example c++, java.., other languages will be a lot easier to learn
