(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I would like some recommendations on what would be the best startup language out of all. I already know just a tiny bit of Java but nothing else. I was also looking into C and Python. Any Suggestions?

Hi,

The best language for the newbie can be none other than the php for the web development and C for the application development.

Start with Java, Java doesn't really have too many advanced topics in the beginning, it's Object-Oriented so you can learn about OOP (Object-Oriented Programming), and it teachs good programming techniques and habits.

Qbasic is the easiest by far. I find Visual basic easy to pick up.

The easiness isn't all I am looking for. I do not want to get into a language that is incredibly simple but it does not enforce good habits and lets little mistakes slide like i heard that VB does

Look up Java or Python, both good languages for beginners.

Ok well people say to start on vb and all the easy languages which makes sense. But the pproblem wit that is that the people who use them never make the switch to the more advanced languages. SO I could say start with c++ or java. I personally like c++ the best.

C++ is pretty easy.
What would the hardest be? (That is still practical)
