1. for learning programming: 1 (as little as possible). Low-level (C) for computer science/deep understanding. High-level (Python/Java) for faster results/motivation. 2. for learning Software Engineering: know which language is good for what (understand basic concepts of multiple languages). After this you probably don’t need these videos anymore and make own decisions based on your goal.

I personally think teaching people dynamically typed languages like Python before statically typed is a big mistake. Python especially because of its community's obsession with making things "pythonic", often at the cost of efficiency. If you go to algorithm training sites, you see bad python code with tons of upvotes all the time just because they managed to do it one line, despite the fact that it has a big O to the third or something awful. I think it's a great language personally, I just feel like its community reinforces some bad habits.

Thanks for the tips. I did started to learn programming from C and Java but the fun part came when I transitioned to Python. Probably because it was faster and more intuitive to implement solutions for my coding problems. Learned as a self-taught biologist. Also, looking forward to the upcoming videos!

It doesn't matter really, just get into programming as quickly as possible, learning concepts is better in my opinion (multithreading, networking, etc).

From a Mechanical Engineering perspective, I love this video because I agree with everything you say! T he languages that I’ve found most useful in my field is Matlab and Python! Planning to make a video on these soon in my channel as well. Thanks for the inspiration and a quality video as always :)

Mid tier fullstack dev here..learned Java in college and loved it at the time. Learned C in college and loved it but never wanted to use it again haha. It was fun to learn but yeah def more difficult. Dabbled in Python and I liked it. But then finally got hired at my job now…and I have been using basically only javascript/typescript (frontend) and Java (backend) . For my own personal project I am using all javascript/typescript on both front end and back end just for consistency. Looking back I would highly recommend javascript/typescript. Because it can be used very well through an an entire stack. And it’s nice to have a consistent language when you start working on your own projects and you start learning about web development concepts. I feel it’s the perfect blend between Python (very easy syntax) and Java (a little more verbose syntax). So it allows for some flexibility for learning while also not being so flexible that you gloss over important concepts One thing I wish they taught better in college was actually building a fullstack app and deploying it. I only learned basically Java and C (which was great) but then I realized “wait I only know how to build like console apps and at most desktop apps that run as a jar file”. I remember having NO clue about what went into web development haha. So I 100% agree don’t ever get an ego and think you know everything…because you don’t. I remember thinking I was hot stuff cuz I was top of the class but then I had a reality check when I got fired from my first job 😂. Luckily I bounced back very well.

I definitely relate to zoning out when I think I already know something. I try to skip the "rudimentary" parts of programming tutorials all the time, but when I actually go through the lectures, readings, or tutorials, I find that there are actually some nuances I had no idea about before. It pays to go through the redundant stuff again. You may learn something you didn't know before.

I think starting out with python is much more easy and motivating. I learnt C back in my high-school which went absolutely above my head which made me almost hate and fear programming as whole. now i am learning python and comparing if i had learnt python 1st i might not have feared programming. tldr: Python with some high-level OS/Linux and networking.

From my experience, the hardest is the second language, further down the line, learning new language is just like learning new library or framework in your favourite language. Few days and you're proficient enough to start building something useful.

I feel there's a missing puzzle to this topic with almost all the videos on KZread with the tag 'how many programming...' that is, people discuss about the programming languages one should learn but never actually tell what languages are specific for what purpose. Not all the programming languages are made for all the purposes (but it's true you can do mostly any task with any programming language). So instead of telling someone learn this or that language. Why don't we discuss okay you wanna do gaming, go learn c#, robotics go learn c/c++, AI or machine learning go for python and list go on...

So I have to look it up again to unconfuse myself

funny thing is i was introduced to QBASIC in high school, which made me really interested in programming. from there i learnt C, then C++, dsa in C++. when i reached college, to my surprise they still taught C and C++ in the first three semesters. afterwards learning Java and C# became so much easier because of C. then i learnt JavaScript just like how i learnt C and it was fun.

Awesome video Forrest! keep it coming ♥

I learned C# as my first language and I feel like it has opened so many doors for me. I've been having a blast with game development being my main focus, but I'd love to make an awesome application one day. Having a growth mindset is the most important skill to have though, it's more important than the language itself starting off. You need to realize that everything takes time. I love James Clear's idea of being 1% better everyday.

Very good video! The next iso version of c is C2x which I saw on Wikipedia, new improvements!!

I'm so happy watching this; his past experience is exactly what I'm going thru right now. ive been focusing on learning 2 programming languages at once instead of focusing on 1; God bless

My personal experience, learning to read languages and how to use stackoverflow/google will carry you really well without having to know any specific language as a hobbyist anyway. First learned Python, then C++, Java, Kotlin, JS, C#. I don't know any of them super well, but I can pick up just about any language half decently as far as the basics go at this point. Edit: To expand, I think Python is great for starting, but C# or Java are the most fun due to being able to use WPF or Android Studio to be able to look at more than command line pretty easily.

For anyone watching this, C is not that scary everyone make a big deal about it, but truthfully C is very bare bone there is not much that the language provide you. Some of the most basic things like transforming a piece of text (aka string) to a number (aka integer) is not included so you'll have to code it yourself, but this is how you'll learn. And when you'll pick up a new programming language you'll have such a better understanding of what's going on. It'll give you such a good perspective and is definitely gonna help in the long run.

If you want to become a better software developer, you should also look at other programming paradigms, especially functional programming. These other paradigms teach you in thinking about problems differently and learning new approaches to solve them. These are not only good for having knowledge about different languages, but many concepts of other paradigms are also available in most Object oriented languages (lambdas are functional programming, you can do logical programming in many languages...) and help you to think about those old problems differently to find shorter, faster or/and more efficient solutions

I am currently enrolled in my CS degree, and already have a CIS degree. Ive found my new school (online asynchronous) was poorly explaining concepts I already learned and when I was really trying I got confused on concepts I came in with a pretty deep understanding of.

I was informed to relay a message to you. I am not too sure if you know, but A.I has not only been successfully reading thoughts, but as of today we are working with emotions.

It sure is fascinating though. Oh man, does it have a great sense of humor.

When I was starting (well, I'm still starting but I'm more into it now) I did that horrible thing of trying a bunch of lanuages (in my case Python, C, QBasic and VBasic -I'm a retrocomputer nerd-) and never actually getting very advanced and felt really disapointed because I wanted to know all of them at the same time (basicly what you said to avoid) but now that I tried java I really want to go with it as my main language. I thing (this is personal, I'm still a noob) that as you said C is good for starting because it gives you the (almost fully) control over the program but if it scares you I thing that java is the other best because it's really high level and easy too understand, very versatile and vastly used (and personally I also like the syntax and it can be used in a lot of old mobile devices and is the main language for Android programming).

"Solidify that knowledge" rings so true. You are not in class to fulfill a number of units or get a good grade, but to be able to use the language even better in real applications. It's a very technical field (surprise!) so all the skills you acquire have to be very hands-on. I keep telling kids this, and only a few actually build a technical fluency through doing the work and deepening their understanding.

ooh my school got me into c++, then in college i came across, c for a whole sem, then java for the next sem...that thing just worked the charm

I've taken several classes where going in I knew I could take the final and pass with no issues. Yet even though I knew the content I still learned something new, reinforced my knowledge, and came out better. Its a big reason why I haven't cleped any classes.

I have heard of a few takes on this. 1. Learn one programming language very well, dominate it and then learn how to call every other programming language from your own. and how to call your own from every other programming language. 2. Learn a programming language per paradigm so you can understand the paradigm very well and learn how to apply different paradigms in different languages. (which might be just an exercise effort for learning and then use this method to find your favorite language and then move to #1) 3. Learn any programming language that teaches you a unique approach to programming, they may be of even similar paradigms but offer something unique. 4. Learn the languages that pay the most of money in the career path you wanna chose. 5. all of the above.

Took C++ in college for two years but barely use it. I use python most of the time. Currently learning JS. Know HTML and CSS. Plan on learning Java and C#

That was excellent. I like C, but I like Pascal better as while you need to type more, a typo is a syntax error while in C it often compiles to something you did not intend. From C on, all languages are pretty similar and the thinking is similar, different inheritance rules and syntax, but very similar. Assembly, however is quite different.

Thanks Forrest!

One per year throughout your career. That's been common advice as long as I've been doing this. I'm not saying I've done it (far from it), but that's a good recommendation. As for what? I think you need C somewhere along the way and at least one form of LISP (Even Emacs Lisp would be one). Also, learn at least one assembly. I'd actually say learn something like 6502, Z80, System 360, or PDP-8 or PDP-11. There are emulators for them and they are (except maybe System 360) smaller architectures. Unless you're doing embedded systems, device drivers, or something where you're using a specific architecture exclusively and extensively this is more about understanding how machines work than a directly useful skill.

I'm learning C++ and Python. One programming is hard and is compiled language and the other one is easy which is interpreted language. Not gonna lie but I love Dart and Swift programming language syntax.

I would like to learn not as many programming languages as I can but as streamlining as I can and I hope that they will be in demand for the next 10 years. My choices of combinations are: 1. JavaScript then python 2. JavaScript then React 3. JavaScript then Tyscript Which combination would be the best choice? Thank you

I'm a programmer who started off w/ Java & C/C++. One thing that confused me learning JavaScript is the shift in the meaning of "single threaded." I read JavaScript is a single threaded & got confused when my code lines did not execute consecutively. Then I found out in JavaScript "single threaded" means "one main thread always continues on while another thread is spun up to handle promises, dialog boxes, etc." That is not what "single threaded" means in any other language!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks. This video is probably aimed at professionals, so not me. I have a simple question, if I may... I use various office tools to make materials for work. Why am I asking about coding then? It takes me hundreds of hours a year, usually of my own time, so unpaid, to do this. Is there a simple way to reduce the 'donkey work' of repetitive processes by using a simple coding tool rather than an office application? I make games, worksheets, quizzes, puzzles and other things, usually very heavy on a selection of images which appear repeatedly throughout the print-out or on-screen activity. I have tried using online services provided by so-called educators' websites, but the scope of what they can do is far, far too limited. Any advice would be great, thanks.

Interesting comment on College. Wouldn't you want to learn a language that was similar enough to Java, master Java at university (because you knew a similar language and understood how to code already), and graduate fluent in two language?

currently learning swift, cause its very easy and pleasant to work with. after that I wanna tackle python. when my CS study start at university I will have to learn java and C. edit: I decided to study CS after I started learning Swift. so I decided to keep lesrning Swift for the next 4 months and then focus on the stuff that comes during my study.

Learning the fundamentals first is the best. Then choose any programming languages you like.

I think learning Java first to learn the basics of programming (Boolean logic, functions/methods, etc) then C second is really strong because Java is in the middle between machine and high level, and it will guide you through your mistakes (syntax). I think that if they start teaching C (or even Python) in high school, it will change the views of programming for people (scare people if it’s C and entice people if it’s Python). I just think Java is the best language to learn first because it teaches the class structure and all of the setup and initial thought to go into it just to get the equivalent of print(“Hello World!”) in Python.

All of them, and after that create your own languages and use those as well. Or just the ones you need to do the types of programming you want to do.

I want to transfer to a school that mainly teaches python - Rn im learning java - do you think they're similar enough that my credits will transfer? Or at the very least, similar enough for the college to think im a good fit for their curriculum?

Personally, I think Java is a much better language to learn first. I would wait to learn Python until you have a REALLY solid understanding of Object oriented programming and typing. I think dynamically typed languages are bad for learning early in general.

Which language i should learn first to step in computer world ?

Im learning C#, Next year i will change my major to cs and I would like to specialize in AI :)

currently I'm learning C++, but I want to main to C# for next

Where's that shirt from big homie it's pretty nice

The only language u need to learn is COBOL 😂

I’m 16 and learning my python but don’t know whats the best field to go in such as software,cyber security and so on. Does anyone have advice?

I will speak from my experience(I'm also 16) By trying different domains , you will understand which ones are more suitable for you and which ones not.For example , searching for the domain in which I will pursue a career , I tried : -- Web dev -- Systems dev -- Ethical hacking -- Machine Learning By trying I mean doing some projects in these domains (for pen-testing it could be trying some ctf-like challenges) and in that way I excluded web development , ethical hacking and understood that I'm going to do systems development as a hobby.So the last one was ML I liked the most and also because of my math teacher , which taught me that research in science can be fun and interesting (he was a professional mathematician , doing research in Dynamical Systems) , I want to opt for a career as researcher in industrial laboratories , such as Google Deep Mind. hope it will help you in some ways.

Website is the most average, 10 minutes watch time product which needs or demands you to learn 4-5 languages which takes 6 yrs for mastering the art. Instead focus on something bigger like data science, software etc

C++ is powerful but it's too difficult to use and there are not enough libraries for backend development.

Love from India 🇮🇳 You are really Awesome !! I was more enthusiastic when you said the word 15.. cuz I'm 14 now and experienced some of the things you said... I did the mistakes cuz I behaved like what you said... Cuz I learnt HTML basics before my classes... I'm lucky to experience them very early... And thanks for your amazing guidance. I really really need you in my future .. Thanking you once again.

I learnt C first...but today I wouldn't recommend anyone to start with C. Because C has a more difficult learning curve. It is likely to put someone off if they keep struggling too much. I'd rather let them go with python if they're just starting out.
