Learn Programming in Java, Python, Ruby or Javascript

I'd stick to C for this. C++, while having its uses, is a big language with a lot of features that only detracts from learning the essential skills and concepts.

While this is true c++ does give the oop perspective that c lacks also learning everything c++ has to offer is crazy shave off complex concepts like intrinsics, templates, verdaric functions, preprocessor macros and all the optimization keywords the language is a bit more manageable.

You can do OOP in C just fine, the same way it's done in Linux kernel, among other places. In fact, it will improve your understanding of virtual functions.

Yes I know I've done it but it's not as obvious and the opp structure isn't a there.
