What programming language would you recommend for beginners without any background in proramming? And why?

Question

I've search the internet for programming language that fits my interest about game developing and automation. And I find out that I should learn c++ and java. What do you think? And if I'm wrong what do you recommend?

Answer 1

I've also been interested in making games,

The first thing you need to do is find an engine which fits the most with your project (or experiments). Personally, I recommend Unity for this. Its an extended engine where many games are made with. And, its quite beginner friendly. Unity uses C# and JavaScript for thethe coding. About which code you want to use is up to you, JavaScript is easyer but C# has a more extended community.

You can make games with any language, but not all engines use all languages.

Its also possible to make a game without a game engine. But I don't recommend it.

Processing

you get to use java without its complications to create tangible visual projects.
easy installation (extract archive and run executable: no path setting etc...).
easy way to run/debug your code: type your code and press run.
easy creation of standalone programs for Linux, Windows, macOS and Android.
a lot of libraries and examples available within the ide.

Answer 3

first choose either web or software, then choose a progLanguage...
basically you need to learn object oriented programming, after that the only thing that changes are the declaration of functions each progLanguage has
