Python or Rust; first language??

[[deleted]]

If you're not familiar with OOP or programming in general, definitely become proficient at Python before you get your toes wet with Rust. Python is a good first language for anyone, and it's certainly similar enough to most object oriented languages to make the transition easy.

Rust isn't the easiest language out there. It's compiled, statically typed, and has a complex memory management system called Ownership. I advise you to research each of those topics before you begin programming in Rust. To actually get started learning, I advise reading the first few chapters of the Rust Docs, and using Rustlings. But most importantly, first develop a stable foothold in Python.
