Which language should i learn? (Info in description)

Question

Hey guys,
I will try to keep it short:
I want to learn a coding language to code a bit in my free time.
I like creative activities and coding is fascinating to me :P
I started with C++ a few weeks ago to learn some basic stuff, and i like the way C++ is structured but i think the aspect of memory management and pointers is pretty difficult for a beginner.
My other option would be Java.
My goals are...
- Creating basic programs for simple tasks
- Giving them a simple GUI
- Maybe creating simple apps for myself
Which language would you suggest?
C++ / Java (/...)

Answer 1

I will suggest to do java first.It is an easy language and you can easily cope up with basics of C And C++ .Because Java uses syntax of C and OOPs concept of C++
