Which is easier to learn first between python and JS?

Question

As a beginner I need a good introduction into programming. So I'd appreciate some insight.

Answer 1

why not try both? then concentrate on the one which makes more sense to you.

Answer 2

Well, vuyo phakathi , it is often said that python is easier to learn due to its simple and clean syntax.
JS can be a little challenging for beginners.

Answer 3

Python syntax is horrendous. Probably best to start with JS between the two. At least JS has proper structure. But tbf both languages have terrible sides to them. At the end of the day it depends on what u want to use the language for.

Answer 4

Please don't start JS or python as the first programming language . You can start with Java or c++.

Answer 5

vuyo phakathi before deciding on a language let's start with what you want to achieve...
Javascript is great for learning game design and development but it does take time to learn.
Python leads to data science, data analysis/analytics, machine learning, robotics, ai, and other activities.

Answer 6

Victoria, Java is very different from JavaScript, Java is a compiler language like C and C# and It's nice for application building.
JavaScript is a simple language that is built for web development and game designing

Answer 7

I agree with whatBob_Li says.

Answer 8

Arash Amorzesh i don't know about java and javascript i haven't started yet now i'm learning python so i think its easy after python i thought to try java soo..

Answer 9

I recommend starting with JavaScript. It has a clear syntax. You can experiment with JS by creating dynamic websites. You don't need additional packages, graphics libraries, complex IDEs, or high-memory computers to work with JS. You can simply write your code in any text editor of your choice and run it in a regular browser. Python, on the other hand, is very difficult to understand, especially due to the spaces in its syntax and the need for additional packages. I started with JS myself, and I'm still learning it because it has endless possibilities. You can use JS and Electron to create small desktop programs.

Answer 10

None of them, they are both too easy and you will get into trouble for learning another, but if you should start with one of them, python has more futures

Answer 11

I think python is better choice to start journey. i also start from python .its easy . i hadn't tried java yet so i don't know which is better for beginner
