How do I begin?

Question

So I was ready to choose JavaScript as my first language, but during my endless (maybe unnecessary?) google searching about programming, I found many people insisting that learning html and CSS before tackling JS has many benefits... so I got kinda lost in my head again. & shortly after someone told me to learn python first because of its simplicity & easy readability. & then learn HTML CSS JavaScript (in that order) should I try this out?

Answer 1

If you're interested in:

Web Development: HTML, CSS, JavaScript

General Programming: Python, Ruby

Android Development: Java

Answer 2

Oh cool I thought I'd have to "master" each one before moving on so thanks for that extra advice!

Answer 3

Ok thank you for the reply.

Answer 4

yeah @qwerty👍

Answer 5

HTML and css are more boring because it’s more formatting than logic but knowing them helps a lot. I would say learn a little html then learn a little css to stye it then throw some JavaScript in. You can learn them all at the same time.

Answer 6

Before you decide on a language to learn, first decide on what you want to do or be based in.
If its web development, I would suggest php or python
If its mobile development, maybe Java(android) or use frameworks like React or Ionic.
If its for mathematical purposes, go for python.
If you intend to be a data science, go for python or R.
If its embedded systems you like, then go for C or Python.
If its enterprise softwares you want to be building, I would suggest C#(.NET framework).
My point simply is that you should first decide on what you want to do before going for a language to learn, so you don't end up knowing so many languages but never mastered one.
