Try C and C++, in that order. In C, learn how to write functions. When you move to C++, learn how to use objects and classes.

I hate to say it, but I would avoid FORTRAN and Matlab like the plague if I were just learning how to program.

Hello there,

I understand the importance of learning computer programming in today's world. My advice would be to start with a language that is widely used and has a strong community for support and learning. Some popular options for beginners include Python, Java, and C++. Additionally, there are many online resources and tutorials available to help you learn these languages.

Since you are still in school, I would also recommend checking with your school to see if they offer any programming courses or clubs that you could join. This will not only provide you with structured learning but also give you the opportunity to collaborate and learn from others.

Remember, learning a programming language takes time and practice, so don't get discouraged if you don't understand everything right away. Keep practicing and seeking help when needed, and you will eventually become proficient in the language of your choice.

Best of luck on your programming journey!
