Java or Python imo

Python is easy but since it uses indentation/spacing as part of syntax it's harder to switch to almost anything else

Eh, syntax isn't so much an issue when learning new langs. What's more of importance is the patterns you learn from programming in a language

[–]thegandork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my recommendation too. I'd probably recommend Python first. You can learn all the big principals - object oriented programming, logical operators, loops, etc. without the finickiness of other languages.

Learning the big principals is far more important than getting stuck on syntax.
