How do you guys learn multiple programming languages at the same time?

Question

I mean I'm new to all this so don't get me wrong. On here I see people learning up to 5 languages at the same time, how on earth do you not get confused? 😕
Here I am taking just C++ and it's giving me a hard time.
Personally, I feel if you learn multiple languages at the same time, u won't master any.

Answer 1

In first I've learned C and C++, and eventually most of concepts of programming in C are found at every (most) of programming languages and as so, eventually it be omes simpler to learn a different language by just learning differences.

Answer 2

At the beginning, when coding is very new to you, it can be more effective to stick to one language for a while, the one you're most likely to actually use for stuff.

It's not just about learning how the language works, like all the keywords, functions and such, but to practice writing actual programs, starting small, working upwards.

After you got a bit of confidence and fluency, you may naturally develop an interest for what else may be there.

And at that point, basics being under your belt, it will be a lot easier to grasp the new material. For one thing, you already know *what* to do (you have some coding experience), you only need to learn another *how*.

And when you learn another language at that point in time, you'll make the observation that a whole lot... is actually about the same thing all over again, it just looks a bit different.

Answer 3

Nobody forces you to learn more than one. It doesn't matter what others do or seem to do, why care?

Knowing the basics of one language helps understanding the basics of another language.

Answer 4

C++ is rather hard btw.

Learning other languages after you know your way around there will probably go smoothly.

So I wouldn't worry too much, just concentrate on C++ for now. :)

Answer 5

Learn one first. Then all will look and feel the same.

Answer 6

in order to learn multiple programming languages I think first of all you have to like it. I think its the same as learning multiple human languages. You also need time to practice and through practice you will learn. The one's language characteristics will help you to understand the other one's aspects and visa versa.

Answer 7

HonFu feel like up voting ur comment more than once, thanks

Answer 8

Ervis Meta - SoloHelper Samuel Mbah C is one of the oldest programming language, so other programming language is similar to it but just written in different ways.

Answer 9

You have to start learning from bit by bit then when your brain is wider enough you can learn many at the same time

Answer 10

POBRE it's gonna be a long shot. That will be like taking two big tasks at the same time.
Reading ur comment your English is OK, but the vocabulary used in the lessons might make it quite difficult for you to understand. You might even need a dictionary to aid ur learning /grasping.
Please find a way to learn coding, especially the basics in a language u understand well

Answer 11

Lisa are u angry commenting? It's just a post dude.

Answer 12

Thanks Ervis Meta - SoloHelper

Answer 13

If you are learning C++ keep practicing and learn further. You could try algorithms and data structures then do some code projects or code coaches. If you feel confident enough in the language you have learnt you could go for something similar like C or C# . It would be easier but if you wanna explore a bit more you should definitely give other languages a try.

Answer 14

Most languages are related, so once you learn basic syntax all you need to do is learn the different names for the other languages

Answer 15

Hi friend i want learn programing language but I have petite problem in language english .are you need it in learn the coding can you tell me please

Answer 16

Learn about verbs. It will help

Answer 17

Samuel Mbah I am still 21 years old. Do I have time or is it too late to learn programming? But I am doing well in the English language by watching movies, listening to music and dialogues in English, is this enough? Thank you

Answer 18

POBRE I'm also 21 man, and I've been learning for just a month. Just take that damn course, don't look back, don't give up and keep making progress!

Answer 19

Samuel Mbah I only learn but I do not apply because I do not have a computer and that damned course is it free or paid and can you give me a YouTube channel that I can learn from

Answer 20

POBRE , you do not have a computer !
No problem as long as I guess you have a mobile (I have Android).
You can learn every language you want but you should refer to this app and other websites to learn and practice :-)
