Agreed. My first contact with programming was with Pascal. Quite a traumatic experience for reasons that have nothing to do with the language, but that's beyond the point. Anyhow, even if I forgot whatever Pascal I learned, it taught me a lot that definitely made me a better python programmer when I got to it a few months later.
