>i am in conflict about c c++ or java. no languages > taught yet. still starting out. languages: its easiest to start with a language that is flexible. php, ruby, python, and javascript are decent choices. you can be writing programs in minutes. Java is great to know, but usually better suited for big or well-defined projects. Very formal and organized. Used for android mobile development. C++ is low level, and better suited for things close to hardware (writing hardware drivers etc). It can be remarkably difficult to debug. There's also the newer languages, like erlang, scala, etc. There's always something new to learn.
