If you are learning Python, is it worth learning C ++ for a general understanding, or should you not load your mind and specifically study Python?

Question

Python

Or maybe you should learn some other languages?

Answer 1

In my opinion, if the goal is to learn Python, then it is better to learn python.
And only then, learn C ++, if necessary / desire.
My way is to learn Python right away and not look to the side (as long as possible) so as not to be sprayed.

Answer 2

Si yes.
Then you can read the code of the C++ python translator itself - no

Answer 3

You can argue for a long time, but IMHO everyone should know c / c ++. At least at the level of syntax and the standard library.

Answer 4

If there is no specific need to learn C ++, then study python and algorithms, data structures, operating systems, etc. When you need to, take up C++.

Answer 5

Python is a high level language. You can write on it without thinking or almost without thinking about many things.
C++ is completely different. Learning C++ will not be "general understanding" learning when learning python. Rather, instead of C ++, you need to study the device of the computer and study the entire conversion cycle from writing code in python to placing it in memory and executing the corresponding commands by the processor. Perhaps this will make it easier to write fast and beautiful code. For a general understanding, it is worth familiarizing yourself with various programming paradigms, since python is universal in this regard. Another important aspect is what do you need a python for? Depending on this, certain knowledge will be needed. And C++ can be learned already when you reach certain heights in python, as the next or just another programming language. Then you will no longer have porridge in your head, and the study will not be confused and will go easily.

Answer 6

Somewhere recently I read a translated article about the fact that learning 10 programming languages ​​is quite simple.
I need to learn C and Python.
Search if you want. Curious tale.

Answer 7

i recommend java for dummies. Although the language is different, but an understanding of OOP and other things will come ... , then diagonal reading assembler, then code for half a year in python and only then torment C ...

Answer 8

From my own experience, python + cpp (week), I will say that python is better first, then pluses. C++ is difficult if first, after python, you can java, then c, and then anything else
