What programming language would you recommend someone learn who is interested in computers and technology but doesn't need it for his future career?

phython

>>54968451
Is it fairly universal or would you compound it with anything afterwards?
>>
>>54968512
I don't know anything about phython or programming I am not a programmer phython is just the only programming language I can name

sorry I shouldn't have given advice
>>
>>54968535
I appreciate the bump nonetheless
>>
>>54968413
C

>>54968413
Python. It's easy to get into because it skips all the heavier shit other languages have for better code structure or performance. It's also popular, with a ton of third party libraries and great standard library.

>>54968512
You can do literally anything with it, but it's slow

learning a language != learning to code. Pick up a book on algorithms or program design and work through that instead if you wanna learn how to code. After that then look at languages to pick up. Since you're just interested in computers, I'd read about fundamentals like bits, twos compliment, von neuman ect. which you can find by googling intro ce classes

Now this guy looks like a real programmer.

>>54968792
This is awful advice.

Yes you are correct, the difficult/important bit of programming is program design, not just using the language.

But most people just do NOT learn like this. A couple autistic types do sure, but they're also not the people you need to worry about failing to learn to code in the first place. For the vast majority of people, things need a grounding practical application to be interesting/comprehensible.

Any book recommendations? And wouldn't doing both together be ideal?
