What Language i must learn first ? please advice me

[elegantmehdi]

hey guys, i want to start learning programming languages and i want to know which language i must learn first.

 

[John Vjorn]

It depends what do you want to do, but for the beginning i'll suggest trying python it's pretty easy compare to others and will show you basic concepts of programming

 

[GaryCook]

I know PHP and some others but I can do a lot in Macro Scheduler. Especially macros obvious.

 

[FleHost]

for websites start with php, for desktop mobile apps start with C to know basics

 

[martinsmith]

Start with PHP for web development..

 

[kvchosting]

We would recommend C++, Java and PHP with MySql.

 

[Graybeard]

I think it really depends on what you intend to code. PHP is commonly used (and often poorly coded and misused -- to a hammer: every object is a nail).

PHP programmers are a dime a dozen -- however -- many websites use PHP so there is a large volume of work to be had as well as an abundance of code snippets around to learn from.

I'm going to get shot for saying this but as a programmer of many languages I would actually suggest Javascript. Between Vue, React, React Native and Node.js you'd get the most from this the fastest. All of these can render server side as well -- so you're not limited to front end.

All languages are great and terrible in their own ways. My favorite language is C# and I never use it. Python is probably the prettiest and incredibly powerful. Do you want a job in programming? If so, doing what? That would help us point you in the right direction!

Obligatory: Google "destroyallsoftware wat" (I can't post links because I'm new here)

I like [I had to remove the link] server-side javascripting.
Client side scripting is useful, as well as low resource use from a server prospective, but should be reserved for trivial or non proprietary code IMHO.

The Vue SSR guide is pretty interesting. This way at least he/she can kill two birds with one stone. I love Node.js so I'm biased over here

M'kayyy. I watched this out of curiosity. This is obviously code humour way over my head. I had absolutely no idea why there was raucous laughter, it didn't strike me that way. I was too busy just trying to understand.

Glad it tickled people's funny bone, though.

 

[Graybeard]

You would have to understand code logic.
And appreciate code error idiosyncrasies.

I'm so old I am actually good with Perl and ssi

Perl is not much good for web use today but I still use it for some back-end and bash scripting <bash another powerful and 'fast and dirty' legacy code I use everyday. Perl is the son of C and the father of PHP more or less ...
