Best starter language that is 100% worth knowing?

I'm starting to think it's python

Ada, obviously. As a bonus it's also the best systems/embedded language in existence.

If you want to truly understand programming, you must program only in asm.

It is. It's a simple language that is incredibly flexible and has vast employment opportunities.

cobol
/thread

Assembly

I agree with user, OP. Idk what you want yo do in particular, but i recently started delving further into Python for my research, and it never ceases to amaze me how much can be done with what feels like so little. I've worked primarily in C++ for the past 5 years, and I love the language, but god damn can you get work done with Python. The only downside in my opinion is it sometimes feels a little blackbox, but that's what makes it so powerful. I think it's a great starting language if you have some goal in mind. It has a great community though, so you should have no problem finding tutorials and help.

Why would you want to know a glue code langauge as your main tool?

fortran, all the old masters learned fortran first, it can't be a coincidence.

python is dying
js and maybe go are the best options

JS, Python, Go
Racket if you want to be a little bit obscure

Java is the best starter language.

JavaScript
I'm not joking. Nodejs is becoming faster and faster and with async/await keywords it's just lovely for writing pretty much anything.

>async
>event loop
while (true) in disguise

Yeah, async does not mean multi-threaded. It never did, async means async.

It all depends on what you want to code, you don't learn C++ to program apps for mobile devices.

I don't get it, how it being a blackbox makes it powerfull?

I wish I could program mobile apps in C

Haskell, Java/C#, Javascript, C, Prolog

ASM

Nim, and languages that compile to C in general, you get almost the speed of C and the ability to go low level, with all the goodies of a high level language.
Nim's metaprogramming is too damn good.

Python and C, anyone else is trying to sell you something.

Can brainlet who never were good at math be a good programmer?

That's a fair point.

Then the best starter language is C.

I'm making almost 100k a year coding, I think I'm pretty darn good, and I'm trash at math. Always have been.

C, C++, Python, and the basics of Assembly

Hello Sir,

Please learning C#. Very support language with good features. Dude, you can finding many jobs where you must do the needful.

Did you do IT in college?

you can focus on what you want to achieve

python is rebbit

We don't have College in Poland.
I played with linux when in high school.

If your from poland, how the hell do you know our language?

Obviously I'm a spy.

Good for you, brat môj. I am going to try then. Anybody knows if those online programming courses are any good?

C.
If you know C, you can easily learn all the others.

What about sites like this, are they any good?

C is the foundation of most languages.

no

Could you tell me why?

>unironically javascript
It is the only language that is cross plattform

Python is as cross platform as javascript.

Thanks user

There are a lot of cross-platform languages, Python being the first one.

>100k a year in poland
not even in warszawa

>pythonistas who never made a program that needed gui

>scripting language being used to something that has a GUI

I know that python is not worth it pal. No need to reinfore that idea.

Neither is JS, unless you're making a website, then it is the only choice.

js
/thread

C++, unironically

If you can't get the hang of it to some extend, you should honestly give up and persue another career
