which progrraming language to learn first

[Mustafa Abbasi]

nice thanks you all.
it seens pythob is the way to go.
what i mean by having 20 days is that 20 in wjich i can work 
on the language 12+ hours a days. once scholl starts i'll be surpriesed if i 
can find even a full hour everyday.

Not sure if 20 days is enough, but try writing a web script.
