python or C++?

1832vin

which one should i learn?

i have no known per-exsisting languages, (i mean computer languages of course)

but for some reason, i know my syntaxs, and stuff.

i think it's because i've always tried to learn, but most of the time i get cutted off by big things that i need to clean, and then restarting over again and everytime, i chose a different language.

but now i'm gonna try sticking with one language.  personally, i don't know java, it's too sensitive for me, and i'm a careless guy, that's the main reason

so which one? python or c++

What do you mean by sensitive? Both python and C++ are very sensitive to mistakes. Way more so than Java.

With python you need to format correctly and C++ you need to manage memory correctly otherwise you end up with leaks if you're not careful.

If Java is too sensitive for you I wouldn't go anywhere near C++.

Go with Python.

 

Alternatively, if you're looking for the ultimate in "I don't care, throw anything at me! Show me what you've got!" insensitivity I wholeheartedly recommend JavaScript. JS just don't give a s**t.

That's an interesting set of languages to choose from - low level vs high level. For learning programming and understanding how things work C++ is the way to go. But for making something "real" python would be better starting point. Go for Ruby it's way cooler than Python...

 

Maybe tells us what you want to make/achieve - it would be easier to suggest something.

I was confused about that too. Low level languages is code computers understand.

You gotta do you girl. I always say you gotta do you. And if he's doing him, then who's doing you? Because right now, it seems like no one's doing you.

I believe he is referring to C and Assembly

Yeah, yeah. Bad wording from my side. I meant if you compare C++ with Python/Ruby/Java than C++ is quite low level language. Of course it's not ASM.

C and C++ are low level programming languages and high level assembly languages ( this is what the people working all day in assembly are saying)

C++ vs Python = I will choose python and then C++.

I recommend C++. I will always do this whenever the question comes up. :)
