What Programming Language Should I Learn First? 

got Jebaited into watching 10min video

+Alex Dębowski what's jebaited!?? Doesn't sound good though!

+MindMash Java is pretty good :)

NOoBsTriKer101 thanks

thanking you now

Time for that C++ lol

Feels😭😭

U in college? I had to learn at grade 8

@@diabetic6567 wow You'll probably go through college easily

@@diabetic6567 lucky you . If I'd have learned that in school. Everything would be so much easier

yes but the man explain WHY!and i want to see all the video to help him because he is helping us!support!

@@witChaos the language is pretty easy to learn and easy to understand and really gets you into programming even tho it's not a compiled language so you should move to other languages like idk c#? Js?

THANK YOU

thank u so much

Then Javascript.

No. It took me 6 minutes to explain WHY that might make sense for you as a beginner. Without the why, this video is useless.

like dude shut up you play minecraft

clever yea you wasted 6 mins of time way to go

Everything concrete application has an abstract origin. Every complex system's has a basic idea to convey. This video is superb!

FlyingCookiesNL and u had 6 min to go away

The problem is that my high school started us off with C++

Learn c first and you can program in every language

Thank you...😄

What about C and C+? When do we learn that?

@@jyothiquadras381 C+ is not a language. C, C++, and C# are all built on the prior. C came first, then C++, then C#. C# --> C gets harder syntactically.

Yep. 👍

A beginner like me wants him to get to the point and not drag it on just to hit the 10 minute mark for more money.

I think that's just today's culture. instant gratification. When in reality the things he said is fairly important to understand the why, and how, instead of just the what.

RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! These people gotta know haha!! Thanks for your kind words Shoaib, I appreciate them beyond words can say!

I totally love your suggestions! I put it up on FB let's go!!!!!

Clever Programmer this is a great video but in the beginning when you compare it to languages and say English is level 1. That is wrong, in fact English is one of the hardest to learn because of the many rules

this video is not gold.....it's diamond

I think python is hard

@@yunus6009 no its like the most easiest of all programming language

@@yunus6009 hard work pays off. Don't give up mate!!!

Yeah python is the best language to start with especially because it's easy

@@fleecky7011 yeah

Are you a complete beginner in coding?

So how are you doing so far?

Same thing happened to me. How's your learning process going?

What's the progress?

Just based on some arbitrary "difficulty to learn" level that is subjective to a persons learning style and understanding. From my experience, I feel that Python is not easier to learn compared to HTML or JavaScript. In fact, I would say that the learning difficulty of Python is on par with PHP or Ruby. While I will it to you that Python is easier to learn than Java, C#, Haskell, . The difficulty level isn't enough to merit not learning Java and to learn Python if you want to do Android development. But, that is my biased opinion based on how I learn. Some concepts that I don't understand in one language someone else may breeze over because their brain is wired to understand that concept easier. I cannot comment on how I feel the "learning difficulty level" of Swift in that I haven't worked in that environment. But, you are correct, a for loop is a for loop in almost any language. Same holds true for an if/else if/else, try/catch/finally, do/while, functions, classes, arrays, numbers(int/float), Boolean (true/false) ... yada yada yada.. They all carry over rather well.

I am now going to respond to your first comment. Before I argue my viewpoint, let's establish why most people never pursue programming or quit early on in their career. Why do most college students drop out or change their major while taking their very first programming classes? People do not like to be overwhelmed with choices - I don't know about you, but I sure don't, especially when venturing into new territory. While I agree with most of what you say, my single purpose here is to provide a path for people to get involved into the world of programming. Javascript, Swift, C++, C#, Scheme, Haskell, Python, Ruby, etc... That's ALL CRAP. The language you start off does not matter. I work with about 4-8 languages on a daily basis and I myself started off with Python. let's say someone didn't know any better and wanted to start off with Java... Trying to work with the conceptual difficulty at the same time as working with syntactical difficulty? Why? That's simply absurd. Python, Ruby, Scheme (functional programming languages) let you simply get to writing a function whereas in Java you have to have the foresight of the data structures that the function is going to return. How is a beginner who just learned the concepts of function is going to know whether his function returns a double, string, array, double array, matrix array... That prerequisite is not possible for ANY beginner to meet, I don't care how smart you are or how you learn. You have to learn how modules and classes work. You also have to learn how to compile your code. That's a ridiculous thing to expect someone totally new to programming to get accustomed to right off the bat. This puts countless barriers in a person's way, who is trying to learn computer programming i.e "Is my function wrong cause it's not compiling vs. did I package it wrong vs. did I remember to tell it to expect the right data type on return vs. ... Or is my logic incorrect?". I use Java quite a bit now and I absolutely love it for that reason because it makes it harder for me to make an error, but would I want to start off like that...? Hell no. That's a logical fallacy that it takes a beginner less time to become proficient in Java if he/she just starts off with Java. It takes a beginner less time to become proficient in Java if he/she first starts off by understanding the core computer programming concepts. I am not advocating any one language is better than the other. I am trying to help people avoid being overwhelmed with their choices and Python happens to be an excellent choice as a first language. There is a reason why most top universities like Carnegie Mellon, UC Berkeley, MIT, Standford, Cornell, and Georgia Tech, have changed their intro CS course to Python. This also holds true for the largest online MOOC providers like Coursera, Udacity, and edX. "Python is Now the Most Popular Introductory Teaching Language at Top U.S. Universities". -- cacm.acm.org/blogs/blog-cacm/176450-python-is-now-the-most-popular-introductory-teaching-language-at-top-u-s-universities/fulltext

I mean I started off in C++ and it was fine

And that's perfectly fine! There is nothing wrong with starting in any particular way. I am just saying some ways might be easier than others :).

Starting with Python is @Clever Programmer's preference. Of course, he will have a bias on Python because that is again... HIS PERSONAL PREFERENCE. So this is all based on his opinion. Clever Programmer is just helping those who are interested to learn about Python. He is "HELPING" those beginners who want to be enlightened on how this language works. Nobody cares on which language are programmers going to start with.. It's all in the preference of the programmer himself. I myself started with Java, however.. with the large number of students in our class, only 4 have survived. They eventually got discouraged with Java because of its complicated "introduction." In our university, out of 1000 students, it's actually a good thing to know that there's 10 students who really excel well. It took me 2 years to be "good" in this field. But until now, I admit, I know that there are still things that I am not capable of yet. In the end... THIS CHANNEL IS JUST FOR THE BENEFIT OF THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED. CLEVER PROGRAMMER ACTUALLY TEACHES IN A NICE MANNER. HE MAKES COMPLICATED THINGS EASY TO UNDERSTAND. If you prefer Java, C++, C#, etc. then go on. Nobody stops you from doing that. This is just his opinion for starters. If you are so against it, you can also make a video yourself so you can help programmers as well. Go help educate rather than acting as if clever programmer is all wrong.

I agree. Learn C or C++ first.

I’m self teaching python lol hopefully I get to understand it sooner or later

I have done with python what to do next sir

What about C++

Big fan sir!

I love too

Thanks

Thanks dint have to waste 10 mins for the answer...

it's actually worth to watch full video

You're right. Because he is giving lecture that helps me to understand better:)

Thanks

Lol

We i do same ? Or should i learn c first becomes most of the people saying to learn c first

@@susanthakuri8377 c is better if want programming as your future, cause it will teach you what programming is, what can be done by programming, data types, structures and pointers, then you can do java or c++ to learn object oriented stuff, then only you will be ready for python , cause python is so easy a language is that it makes programming a lot easier for you, which I know may sound great but will suppress your power to get logic for code., and if ever you go to any other language python then it may feel like a pain to you and you will be too frustrated that you actually wont want to lear that language.

@@sahilverma4077 ok thanks bro this helped me a lot

+Jesus Gil (Fuzzy8Bearz) yup! That's amazing if it worked for you. Smart guy :).

I did too, I don't think it's a bad language to start with. It may not be the most satisfying language to start with but other than that there's no reason not to. I started working as a java dev during uni and had never written a line of Java before the short period between me being offered the job and me starting it. I just spent a weekend reading an introduction to java book and then started work monday morning.

Haha wow that is an incredible story. You got a job without knowing Java! How did that happen? I might make a video on this subject

Me too I started C++, I didn't start with javascript because I thought it was too easy

I'm the same boat.. html and c++ were the first languages I learnt and I've found learning everything else has been so much easier :)

Best idea...good luck 😀

I recommend python, easiest to grasp programming concepts.

@Yakushi Kabuto I started out with Python and I did just fine. I'm not saying it's the best, I hate picking sides. What do you recommend then?

@Yakushi Kabuto Fair enough

Same here

I'm learning Javascript, but I hate the syntax. Python's still the best!

Java and JavaScript are very different.

did you actually sit trough 6 minutes before he began listing them?

Annie Wall really

Yes

I'm in high school right now, but do you have any tips to learn C++ in a solid way like the way to remember? I really appreciate your answer :3

Iñigo Fernandez explain to me why because I want to learn coding I don’t know anything I was even thing about starting off with Kano kit for kids

Kodoku to shiawase :)

*hits blunt*

Edishing

Kodoku to shiawase first learn how to start milking the cow... boy😂

ichibandesu we appreciate your positive attitude

Start with the logic first (what does "AND, OR, NOT, NAND.... etc" mean, --> the real basics) Programming is all about logic, sequence and math ofc. If u want boiled eggs it doesn't help you mutch to know that the liquid you need is called water, you have to know the sequence to recieve your eggs --> fill water in a pot, put the egg in the water, bring it to boiling temp and so on. As soon as you understand the basics you are able to transfer those to every programming language. Other than that i'd also say start with C or C++

Agree

dude! u just read my mind. c++ is the base programming language for all other programming languages. if u know c++ other programming language will be easy as hell to learn.

@kaleab alemayehu | I had already started with JavaScript. Should I switch over to C++ and then come back to JavaScript?

@Juven Jun | Okay. Thank you! :D

Hey, a beginner here. Why HTML? Isn't that for website? I'm still deciding whether to learn python, html, or c first. Thanks mate.

@@nitroraptor354 It demands what you want. HTML, CSS and Javascript are develop for Webdevelopent. Phyton is more useful for science but is also good for other stuff... I heard that it should be possible with phyton...

@@albano9354 If I want to create apps like Android games or games in general which programming language should I learn first time? Thank you very much for the reply.

@@nitroraptor354 For Android games learn Java first. Then learn Kotlin after java. If you want to develop Pc Games learn C#.

@@slnh3130 Thank you, I will start with java then

How did it go and what are u doing now lol

Where can you begin to learn Python? I'm very excited to learn Python language but I don't know how to start it. Please let me know! thank you

thang le you can learn at code academy or any other websites like that. Or you can buy a book.

I want to learn programming language,i have zero knowledge about programming languages, please suggest me from where should i need to start.

@@romij9270 same here lets have talk over call and start it together

@@shanusandhu3790 How did you guys start please?

stairfish 99 bro wrong vid lol this is for programming lele

Me too... Lol

Python it's just an oversimplified C... The self-driving car of programming languages.

+Daniel Patiño weird way to put it but iiii like it!!

May God have mercy on your soul. I've seen half a dozen of comments truer than this video ...

c# vs python thoughts? i tried learning c# but after a little into it i kept getting stuck became draggy. I don't know i should keep trying c# of move on to python and then go back ? thoughts? thanks!

@@KnightandRaena C# is very powerful. I started with Pascal, then C and Unix, then VB6, then Java, then VB.net, then C# and still using it now at work. It's a very complicated language but I like it better than Java. I suggest you start with Python if this guy suggest it's easy to learn that, I would in my spare time...

That's kul I'm on the same track

Yeah html and xml was first then I was taught java script. Never took computer class just the basic that was taught to all the students in our school. I wished I took computer classes. Anyways starting to self taught python from the scratch. Wish me luck!

In web dev, Front-end, back-end, just focus on either, for me, i already learnt half related to back-end, i'm more to dev & design for mobile & game application, aside database, fyi Flutter is a hot topic (dart language - combine java & c#)

Chinmay Parab aaah! That's what you programm your scammer apps with :D

lol XD

Domi nik lmao

Ye C++ is way better to start with. Learn actual programming before you start writing stupid Python shit.

just learned C++ two times. now what to do ? how to do some advanced shit ?

+Kingberli Capellan you're more amazing.

It is essential to learn c before c++?? Plz tell me about that.

@@ajaywaghare6855 No. Actually C++ is not a superset of C, there are situations when code compiles in C but not in C++, but the chances are rare. So learn C before C++ will smooth the learning curve of C++, but it's not essential.

Really, so early? This is part of the schools' curriculum?
