This is written for persons that do not know any programing language and they are thinking what programing language they should learn first.<\/p>\n
Altho, I think that reasoning behind decisions in this article can help you with choosing your next programing language<\/strong> also.<\/p>\n What are you trying to accomplish?<\/strong><\/p>\n Same is with learning programming language.<\/p>\n I have listed few main reasons why persons want to learn a programing language:<\/p>\n Programming jobs (and salaries) are location dependent<\/strong>, due to this reason do research which programming languages job are available in your area.<\/p>\n If you plan to move\/migrate do same for that area.<\/p>\n Check the local programming jobs listing to get a clue.<\/p>\n It is good to visit local programming meetups<\/a>, if you plan to be a professional software developer start on your networking also.<\/p>\n Meetups are also a good way to see who is hiring.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you plan to do freelance then you are not location depended.<\/p>\n What, I would argue, is even making thing more difficult, because you do not have location constraint.<\/p>\n Anyway do cost\/benefit analysis and pick some language that makes sense according to your own constraints.<\/strong><\/p>\n You want to make some software (desktop app, website, web app, mobile app, etc).<\/p>\n You could pay profession to do it for you, but for some reason (eg. you are still in high-school, etc) you want to do it by your self.<\/p>\n Do research and find out what programming language is best for software that you plan to build.<\/strong><\/p>\n I personally optimize for time to market.<\/strong><\/p>\n If you plan to make a web app, there is no reason for you to learn C++<\/a>, believe me, there is not.<\/p>\n Currently, in the year 2018, there are already known programming languages (tools) for most of the use cases.<\/p>\n But you also need to be careful, because most software developers will suggest programming languages that they know.<\/p>\n So, do not ask just one person but at least few dozens.<\/p>\n And always ask them what is the reasoning behind their decision.<\/p>\n You do not want a job, you have no idea what to make with programming, you just want to learn programming.<\/p>\n Then you can pick any language, altho my suggestion is to pick something that does have some real-life usage and it is not complicated for beginners.<\/strong><\/p>\n My humble suggestion is to choose Python<\/a> “… is easy for beginners, practical for professionals, and exciting for hackers …” from Fluent Python<\/a>.<\/p>\n Know what are you trying to accomplish and pick programing language for that purpose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Published on: 01.06.2018 This is written for persons that do not know any programing language and they are thinking what programing language they should learn first.
