I don’t really want to go in depth into programming, I just want to know what I’m looking at if I ever come across anything like that at my job (mechanical engineering) and maybe solve some simple problems.

I learned C and Java in my first year in college, but it’s all mostly forgotten. I’m leaning towards Python since I read it’s relatively simple and used a lot nowadays, and it’s what my teachers used later on in college anyway.

What do you guys think?

Thanks in advance!

    This won’t be very popular, but something with manual memory management. You probably won’t use it a whole tonne, but that’s not the important thing. The important thing is the understanding of memory concepts such as addressing and pointers.

    Personally I learned C++ first, haven’t used it a whole lot, but it absolutely helped me understand other languages much much much better.
