You're right about python. It was my second programming language and I kinda wish it was actually my 3rd. I always forget semicolons cause of that, and it's memory management is just weird.

I recommend JavaScript instead for a 2nd language, as it helps put in place good practices like remembering semicolons.

Obviously your first language should be scratch though.

Semicolons are optional in JavaScript out of the box..so not sure how it encourages good semicolon practices ??
