| Can you make a program about sex, once you get started? I would greatly appreciate having more sex programs out in the wild for me to use.
| >>7300b6 Oh, I was not generalizing in that question of mine. I was telling OP directly to make one as soon as OP gets started, because sex is so interesting.
| >>7300b6 Are you a coding master? Can you program me to have sex with you? Sex is the only programming language I know.
| Serious answer: Python is easy to learn and you can really quickly write programs to automate things
| Python is indeed good.
Just, don't get anywhere near JavaScript, and don't trust people who tell you to learn with it. It's nothing more than a sort of weird sect at this point and I just keep on people luring beginners into learning it. Don't, except if you want to be bad at programming.
| C
| Something I have noticed with what little I have done, is do not fear doing things backwards literally. Sometimes you have to start at the end of a problem and work backward.
I would personally suggest against learning C or it's derivatives as a first language. Lua is nice IMO, but I'm not sure what other people thing. Lisp has weird structure, but I use it for work, so I know it's decent enough.
| Lua isn't bad but it counts from 1 instead of 0 like every other programing language

python
it's easy, forgiving, there are a ton of resources about it online and it's probably the most useful language you can learn
i've got a bunch of python scripts everywhere to do mundane computer shit for me
