Python vs C++ vs HTML?

Edit: signed up for Havard's free CS50 course on edx

Which is better to focus on learning?

The basic understanding I have is that Python is fairly common and main now, and is a programming language for developing

C++ is older but pretty universal

and HTML is for front end website design


In terms of jobs and versatility and what I should focus on, can some miscers give a basic rundown?

What does bb.com run on?

C++ will give the best fundamentals out of those options. HTML is really not comparable to either, and many websites aren't even written in HTML nowdays.

Java would probably be better to learn than any of these though.

What do you want to do? In my case i use all of those languages but it completely depends on what you want to do.

AI, Machine learning, Data Science, Data analysis, Deep learning - python
General Software development, making programs or games development - C++ or C#
Web development - Javascript, html and css
App development - Java or Kotlin or swift if iOS
AR/VR development - C# or C++ depending if you want to use unity or unreal engine.


imo python is the best general purpose langauge as you can do everything from software development to web development to deep learning and neural networks.

Oh, I'd thought Java was messier and less used now

I don't have any particular career goal with them yet. Learning the basics and general stuff for now, and see where I'm most interested, unless particular ones or a lot more useful.

Honestly I would say python. pretty standard on the structure of the language with other languages. You can search out libraries for pretty much anything you want to do (UI, Web, AI,Games, etc), and memory management isnt a big concern.


Also here is a free book:

I would stick to a C language.

Personally i am self-studying C#.

They are totally different languages for totally different things. If you have to ask, learn python.

Bros on this topic I want to make an app for crypto analytics, the tool I've made works perfectly in Excel -- it's just a simple calculator -- a lot of formulas.

I know how to make basic bitch websites but not how to code apps.

The Excel file I use uses APIs to retrieve prices for the crypto which is important for it to work. So the app would need to retrieve API and then also offer the formulas. Basically I want to convert the excel file into an app/website. Any suggestion what language would be best to code it in?

Will either make it myself or pay someone to do it, but with the 800 languages out I'm not sure what the best tool for the job is. I'm thinking Python from the above posts.

Reps on rc for any advice

the languages you posted have wildly different use cases

learn c++ if you wanna fry your brain

start with python. should help you understand programming concepts (which is what you should be learning ... not syntax or languages for now)

This is a chalk and cheese comparison. They have NOTHING in common.

Learn python BTW.

IMO you should figure out whether you want to do web dev or not.

If so, start with HTML and CSS and then get into Javascript, React, Native, etc.

If not web dev, start with python.

Search up programming jobs in your area and see what's in demand or figure out a project you want to build. That will help you decide.

Thought we went over the fact that html isn't really a part of the conversation (it's like dogs vs. cats vs. a carrot)?

Safe bet is definitely python. Will abstract some of trickier stuff away from you so you can do more while still learning a lot of CS fundamentals. Then, if you decide you want to go deeper into CS and get a real understanding, C++/C is the answer. Java as a second place choice.

This is a common path in CS programs fwiw.

Python, CSS, and HTML are all different technologies used in web development.

Python is a high-level programming language that is used for a wide range of applications, including web development. Python can be used to create web applications using frameworks such as Django, Flask, and Pyramid.

CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in HTML or XML. CSS is used to define the layout and style of web pages, including fonts, colors, and spacing.

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a standard markup language used to create web pages. HTML provides the structure and content of a web page, while CSS is used to style and layout the content, and JavaScript is used to add interactivity and dynamic behavior to the web page.

In summary, Python is a programming language used for web development, while CSS and HTML are markup languages used for defining the style and structure of web pages.

I hope this helps! If you have any further questions or need additional assistance with web development or any other topic related to technology or education in general please let me know.

If anyone looking for more resources to learn web development, you can check out e-Tuitions for HTML courses . They offer online classes for students in school and college, and you can learn from the best teachers in India. They offer a wide range of courses including IIT-JEE preparation, NEET preparation, coding classes, language classes, bank exam preparation and more .
