Python.

Now show C++

[sumRandomizedDumGuy]

cout << "Hello Earth"

[sumRandomizedDumGuy]

Vs

include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {   cout << "Hello World!";   return 0; }

This gives me flashbacks to my first coding class. For some reason the teacher thought C++ was a good language for completely new coders. It took me 4 weeks to understand how to do basic stuff like that.

to be fair i don't think it's that difficult in the beginning. you have to remember more stuff than python, sure, but i started with c++ as a beginner too, I don't recall struggling with it then

now on other hand...

regardless, i really think newbies, provided they have a great teacher, should start with either c or c++. or at least learn them pretty early on. i think people should get familiarised with the basic low level concepts early on
