If u want to learn the fundamentals of programming i guess c++ would be great for newcomer, but it's really hard to understand it. Python would really fit for you if you want to skip it
well, it depends on what program you want to create, but if you haven't decided it yet and looking for the easiest, then ofc it's Python, what else lol
i think too picking a first language is overrated which i mean u can solve tasks many diff ways [languages] just pick a language n learn it very well then u understand how they work more generally n can pick more languages depending on specified needs
