I agree. I think the ideal is something like 6 months Python/Ruby, 1 year C, then one OOP and one functional language.

- pjmlp 13y ago> then one OOP and one functional language. They are already exposed to it by making use of Python/Ruby.
- DiggityDug7 13y agoI also started programming with my TI Calculator and also had a few lessons from my Dad in Pascal. Then in my college, I started with Lisp, then C, then Java. C was definitely the primary language for my college education: Operating Systems, Architecture, Software Development, Compilers. Although C allows you to understand the computer at a low level, I had no intention to get a career in it. I appreciate C, but wish I learned more high level languages to be more prepared come graduation. C is important to know, but it can also be overemphasized in some colleges.
