I remember when I first started in computers the most common question (after can you fix my computer?) was "What is the best language to learn?"
Even as a C/C++ programmer I never felt comfortable suggestion a n00b start on such languages. Delphi/Pascal came to mind but wasn't as readily available.
Finally, I am comfortable making a recommendation. And like all my opinions, these are well reasoned, clearly thought out, and obviously 100% correct, and if you disagree, you are probably wrong about other things too :)
So my current answer is Python.
I am open to opinions and experiences. Discussion anyone?
@ITwrx this is the first I have ever even heard the term
@Absinthe yeah, it's not real well known. Certainly no Python, in that regard. If ubiquity was not a major requirement for an individual, then it looks pretty recommendable to me so far. Clean, easy syntax, compiled to C.
