Hey, so I've started Java a few while back, got some of the basics, don't have much interest in it, I do it when I want, and don't when don't want, bu it's my sister who's been pushing me forward since she's studying Computer Engineering in her University.
Before I started, I asked some people on Pika's Discord about it, some said it would be better starting off with C, then Java. But I beginned with Java, then at my school, my sir was saying that it's the best to start off with C, then Java.
Why is that?
I need some differences between Java and C code samples, I know that Java is object-oriented, and from the little programming experience I had from QBASIC, Java is the best I could understand, I haven't tried out C, but I could tell Java is easier.

And Python is a more helpful language too is what I heard, I want the differences between Python and Java too, someone showed me the printing code for Python is simply Print>Hi or something like that, is that true?

I prefer Java over C since Java could help me in Web Developing as well as Android Apps.

:confused:

If you know how to be a java programmer, you can make an appeal to be a Developer team member! :)

I already applied for a PvP Helper, I was accepted, but resigned. Being a Developer is kinda tough, besides, I'm still a beginner. Who knows if I'm ever completing Java :laugh:

Lol thanks. But that's a pretty long way to go.

Actually Java won't help alot in developing webs and making apps for phones, you need to know the basics, C, HTML, bootstrap, JS (javascript) and more to make something awesome, also you need to know CSS coding.

So, Java VS C
Main difference I think is to be, that C is actually used for Microsoft purpose mostly, but Java is open-source, so it's better to learn Java first if you wanna develope some websites, but if you wanna develope some games, then you need to learn C aswell.

Looks like you have a good idea about them, do you do Java or C?

I currently don't do any of them, but I used to learn Java and practice it myself for own entertainment :)

Java is a general-purpose computer programming language that is concurrent, class-based, object-oriented, and specifically designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible, and C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations.

Their stuctural purposes are indeed the same, but the use of one another can result to different actions. I myself do not recommend using C, but that is what computer enginerring software designers use to start off, it is mainly used for teaching compatibility, but Java is better since it allows more uses.

Hoped this helped..

I know a bit of Java but haven't really looked into C yet. All I can say is that if you think that Java is easier, go for it. You'll still understand almost all of the language sooner or later. If you don't have any interest in any of the languages you stated above, the answer is simple. Don't code. Only do it if you enjoy the challenges and think that it is something you'll like doing. I started off with reading the Java Docs, and now I'm watching more in depth video tutorials with Jav - anyways, Java is very popular and an useful language overall. C is ok but, if you understand Java, you'll probably find C easier to learn later. Anyways, good luck.
