Noah Ceman you should really try Python3 .
It is the best language to learn programming (in my opinion ).

Answer 4

Java - If you want to be an web developer(Full stack web developer), Android developer or java developer. Java is 2nd most used language(1st is sql).

C++ - If u want to go into software development, game development, c++ wont be used here but its integrals like C# will be used,If you are going on embedded like using arduino, C++ will be the best, as it is performance oriented language.

Python - This language is very versatile, It can be used in both of the above line of development.

Now the important part of which language you should learn.

I would suggest take any of this language, learn and master the basic concepts of Object Oriented Programming.

Whenever you learn new language always compare them with what language you know.

I learned java first because I am an android developer, and most of the documentation of android was available on java. Then when i started doing ios development I learnt C++ then swift. And the common thing is that Java, C++ and swift are all OOP languages. Then when i started learning IOT i shifted towards python. So using my knowledge of OOP I was able to learn all of the three languages. But my main language is Java because carrier wise speaking, If I get proficient in java I can be android developer, web developer or java developer. The scope increases.

There are multiple programming languages, and we should not limit ourselves on one, and to excel in all you need to find out whats common in all of them, because the only thing that changes is syntax.

So my opinion is find out what type of developer you want to be and what languages are used in that field.

If you are going for precision timing and accurate outputs of your program and where you have the control of your hardware in fields like machine learning, AI, software development, than C ++ is your man.

If you are going for cross platform functionalities like a single module but works on Mobile, Computer, TV than java/python are your best shot

Answer 10

Yes of course java is the best language to learn. As there are many reasons and benefits of learning java as a beginner. As java is having following traits:-

Beginner Friendliness

Generally, Java was designed to be relatively beginner-friendly in that it assumes the programmer is not that smart or careful, so programmers will be less likely to shoot themselves in the foot when coding Java apps.
Relatively Simple to Use

Java is a high level language, which means Java abstracts away (i.e. handles for you) most of the complex details of the machine (computer) such as memory management, etc. Thus, you can focus on programming instead of worrying about the little details many consider both tedious and difficult.
