Something like good ol Pascal, just a little more market-correct to make
it viable. Something that puts sanity and simplicity above impression or
anything else. C or Python as first languages (like seems the norm among
UNIs) is suicidal. I am strongly against it. Kids just dont learn the
essentials. And the path goes like , simple -> lower lever (C/Assembly)
, but also higher level (C++/Java/Python/etc). Destroying their minds by
starting with Python or C just minimizes the chances for future great C
programmers or Java/Python programmers.
Ppl from the community already expressed to me the shortage of new ppl
willing to write system level (linux/postgersql) C code. And nothing is
accidental.
