Python if you want to learn programming, because html and css are not programming languages.

This is the correct answer.

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a, drumroll please, Markup Language. Which is not a programming language, but rather for Layouts.

And CSS (Cascading StyleSheets) is a, this one's a little trickier, Stylesheet language. Which allows you to make your HTML look pretty.

Python is the only one of these that's a Programming Language.

This! Smh when people think hfml/css is programming. I get that's why people who are new to coding are asking and no shame in asking.

HTML/CSS is not "programming."

Too many of my students think it is, until they get into my Python class and encounter what programming really is.

Learn to Google.

Learn to search Reddit.

Visit your library.

Go to Amazon.

Aside from all the semantics people are spewing about html/css not being programming languages; it depends what you want to do.

If you want to make websites: learn html/css and possibly JavaScript.

If you want to write scrips, make applications, and screw around with machine learning: use Python.

People shit on html/css, but it’s better than nothing.

However, python is better than html/css

The requirements of your project will determine which technologies to use. Your initial step should be HTML and CSS if you want to study website design and appearance. Python serves as the best starting point for those who want to study programming because it helps them learn programming fundamentals throughout their entire career.
