I'd like to start learning how to code, but i am unsure as to what the best language is for a beginner. This may be the post that helps me decide. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for pointing this out. We really need this.
Python is being pushed as THE language for beginners, when its not suited for beginners at all. There are so many points to not use Python, especially as a beginner. One of the most important fundamental things to know about are types. Python has no type safety and people will see this as a win for Python because its easier and less to write, although this will lead to much more error liability and design flaws. In addition to that, most errors will be evaluated in runtime because there is no compiler - also one of the reasons Python is much slower in comparison to compiled languages. The code gets interpreted. And lets not talk about the way of how Python handles tab indentation. Beginners will eventually be stuck and stop learning, and when they're introduced to other languages (like the C-family), they'll be overwhelmed. But good luck trying to find a good beginner language without being propagandized with Python. C# is a great language, especially for beginners. Well, any similar language will be better to start off with compared to Python. Theres nothing wrong with using Python when youre experienced or intermediate, but that will be a compeltely different scenario. |
