I learned how to do loops and logic in Basic. C & C++'s syntax was just confusing to me when I was younger. A few days with Basic was all that I needed for the light bulb to go off in my head and work in C++.
- earthboundkid 6y agoThere are languages for teaching better than C or BASIC.
- srivastm 6y agoFor teaching in present time, I would start with Python, and may be for CS oriented students go to functional languages, e.g. scheme.
