Does learning more than one coding language at once hurt, or can it be done with balance

Answer 1

it hurts so bad man, i still have stitches from learning 3 at once. the doctor told me i should stay away from programming for 2 months

Answer 2

please just focus on one language. it will save you a lot of confusion!

Answer 3

haha.. good question... it is not bad but it would be confusing to learn more than one language at once because you wouldn't have gained much expertise on one language and you are going for the second which would push you to get confused in what is what.

Take my example, I am very good at java, if I learn anything new now then it would help in understanding what is good in java and what is bad in it compared to the new language instead of confusing it with the new language.

So, learn one language, practice it well so that you would all its concepts well then you can learn the other language. But, learning more than one language is tedious but it has its own benefits because you would be able to tell what is good in both of them and what is bad in both of them and choose one of them to solve your problem which is the job of architects. You can become a solution architect if you know more than one way to solve a problem.

Answer 5

a ridiculous answer to an equally ridiculous question m8.

what's up with trying to learn multiple languages yourself and seeing where it goes? these kinds of questions are really subjective and should be experimented on, not asked. personally i think learning multiple languages has the benefit of supplementing things you didn't understand in one language, using other ones. has helped me numerous times, even with wildly different languages like Python and C++
