What should I choose to learn in deep? C++ or python?

Question

I've completed my python as well as c++ course and want to work in Microsoft in future...
After knowing the two languages, I want to pick one of the language through which I make my career.... Please guide..

Answer 1

If your professional goal is to work for/with Microsoft (developing apps that is, I assume) you won't be able to do without C++, C# and Microsoft's .NET platforms.

The reason why is, that C++ gives you the utmost control over the computer's hardware and computational capability. C++ gives you control over memory allocation and process hierarchy in a way that Python simply does not.

If you have not already done yet, go to https://visualstudio.microsoft.com and download Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition (that's the free of charge one) and make yourself acquainted with Microsoft's IDE Visual Studio. Also, make sure you understand how Azure DevOps works - Microsoft's own "GitHub".

At https://visualstudio.microsoft.com Microsoft provides tons of highly valuable and free of charge online materials with respect to software development.

It's going to be a lot to learn but if you get good at it, it will surely pay off!

Answer 2

I also learned Python as my first language, so everything else does seem scary. You just have to take it slow and make sure you understand each section before moving on, and remember to use the comments and forums for help. C++ will definitely take a lot longer to learn compared to Python as it is one of the harder languages to learn. Be patient, and work hard :)

Answer 3

Thanks for answering Big Mungus, but I learned python as my first language and feel a bit difficult to switch from python to c++, do you have any suggestion on that??

Answer 4

can you provide me the resource via which I can learn it:)

Answer 5

HonFu, thanks brother... 😄

Answer 6

It depends what type of job you want to do. C, C++, and C# are three of the main languages Microsoft use though.

Answer 7

C++ and C# for Microsoft.

Answer 8

You could redo the C++ to reinforce your knowledge, and maybe try the C++ course on codecademy for a different perspective. Lots of research will always help too.

Answer 9

Python is easier to learn as a beginner and also has many modules that you can use. C++ is harder to learn but is very useful once you get the hang of it.

Edit: C++ C & C# for microsoft. But if you’re general programmer then definately python

Answer 10

www.cppreference.com

Answer 11

C++

Answer 12

if you are willing to be well settled in hardware focus on C and C++

if you are very much interested in software prefer python and supported languages ex JAVA

Answer 13

If you want to do something with python like algorithms or ai etc use python as your main source, but if you decide to main applications for Microsoft start with C language then move on to C ++ learning C u will know 50 percent of C++ and move to C # to create applications for Microsoft. I would say learn C language and stick with python, use both of them.
