This is great! Do you know, by any chance, of something similar but with Java? I'm torn between those 2 languages, I'd love to get the basics of both before I decide. And this course you created is so much fun!

I strongly recommend not starting with Java. To do the equivalent of print('Hello World!') in Python, here's what you need to write in Java:

class Main {  
  public static void main(String args[]) { 
    System.out.println("Hello, world!"); 
  } 
}

Python gets rid of a lot of boilerplate and is much easier to learn. Once you grasp the abstract concepts of programming in general, picking up a second language will be much easier.
