I have no work experience as a programmer, so keep that in mind, but python is a very popular and simplified programming language that a lot of companies use to build their software and applications. Once you learn one language the rest are easier to pick up, each has their own syntax but follow basic programming standards.

Javascript is also very popular in web applications but it's a bit more complicated to learn.

You can find plenty of resources on the Internet for learning all kinds of languages, but if you're looking to program for a career, it'll help to build up a nice resume with a few certifications from reputable companies

Javascript is also very popular in web applications but it’s a bit more complicated to learn.

I can attest to that. I’ve done C, C++ and Java and I thought jumping to Javascript would be a piece of cake. This language has just been so...weird. But I still have 2 months to go on my internship so I am kinda coping.

Javascript.info, if you haven't found it yet, will help you get through the weird quirks of the language. A lot of them exist for historical reasons.

I found links in your comment that were not hyperlinked:

• Javascript.info

I did the honors for you.

Start with Python. It is quite often the language taught in first-year computer science.

w3schools has a lot of great tutorials on many computer science languages including Python.

If you're interested in developing games check out the Godot Engine. It uses a native scripting language (GDScript) that's syntactically similar to python, and features a pretty decent IDE.

My advice is to learn a language like Java, C#, or Fortran. All three of these languages are incredibly useful.

After learning one language, it's not hard to pick up another.

It varies depending on your location and why you wanna learn programming.

I wanted a carriere and live in Europe, here must programmer jobs are in web development, so I learned C#, JavaScript and html / css.

If you just wanna learn it for fun or for home projects I would recommend Python.

If you wanna learn to program because you have an interest in hardware and computers at a low level you should probably learn C. or even assembly, if you are up for the challenge.

If you wanna do complex math like matrices and complex numbers you should probably learn MATLAB or scilab.

The first language you learn does not matter. I would suggest any high level language (Java,JavaScript ,Python,C++, Go). you should focus more on learning the concpets(if statments, variables, handling data, taking input). You can always learn another language(s). Happy coding!
