    I love Python.

    I'm new to programming, and I started with Python, as when you start it, it's easy to get the swing of, and will teach the fundamentals, about white space, etc. A lot of math operators and (general) operators in Python are similar to the majority of languages.


    It all depends on what software you want to make; if it's iOS apps, go for Swift. (Not objective-c).

    If you want to make Windows applications, go for a variation of C or VB.

    If you want to make android applications, I believe those are powered with Java.

    If you want to make games, then the language to learn is C++.
    I study Media Gaming, a BTEC, and the language that is suggested we learn is C++.

    Finally; if you want to make an application that virtually runs on every computer, then you should go for Java, not to be confused with JavaScript.

    Again, I recommend you learn Python before jumping into any languages like C.

    Edit; if you want a job in security, it might be worth learning SQL & PHP, there's a demand for DBAs.

    Hope this helps ;)

    "It's what Microsoft is coded in"
    Yeah, no :/

    If you mean Windows, that is definitely not powered / created in Java...

    Probably a branch of C

    Well, Xenforo clearly doesn't work on my phone too well, merging posts seems to have created an entirely new thread, good job Xenforo.

    Locking.
