So I've always wanted to learn code/program since I was 14 or so. I took YouTube and even website tutorials for Java, tried to follow along and everything but just didn't get it. I thought that Java was the best and easiest language to learn for a beginner. Well, not for me.
Fast forward to the beginning of this school year, I'm in high school and 16. I started taking programming class and we're going to learn Python. A month or two later and I actually understand the syntax of it, how if-else statements work, variables, functions, I even programmed a function to solve my Physics homework.
Do you think now, that having a basic understanding of Python, it would be easier for me to learn another programming language like C, or Java, or something else?
Definitely, it certainly helped in my experience, where my first language was Liberty BASIC, and then Python. I found learning Python easier than learning LB. It's really more to with how you think about your programs, your logical thinking/problem solving skills.
After learning one language, are other languages easier?
