I started learning with Perl, initially from a web-based perspective
but I don't think you can go far wrong with Python as a first
language.
Along with a good text, learning with Python will develop your ability
to program with objects in a straight-forward manner. No-matter what
language I'm using, I find it easier to find a solution by figuring
out how I'd tackle it in Python first and then using the equivalent
method in Java etc.
Has anyone argued Cobol yet?
