Is it bad to learn multiple languages at the same time?

i'm curently learning c++ and php at the same time and i plan on taking c# later on. is this a bad thing? should i focus on learning one at a time?

No I don't think so because you can compare the diffrent languages. At an Example you are learning C++ and C#. You can easily compare the two different languages. Maybe at the start it's a bit confusing but I would recommend you to learn PHP and C++ at the same time.

Not at all! If you can keep track of and understand everything, learning two at once isn't bad. Just be sure not to spread yourself too thin. I learned php and java at the same time, so you aren't the only one.

Learn one is useful to you. Some are better than others for some task. You will be wasting your time and confusing yourself learning different syntax for no reason.

No, as long as you can keep track of the language/syntax differences.
