I would not advocate learning the old BASIC with line numbers, especially as a first programing language, because it is among the worst languages with respect to structured programing, and would cause one to "learn" bad ways of programi...

Then you perfectly see the different families. For example, C and Pascal are almost the same, you can translate ...

HTML is a language, however it is not Turing complete . Javascript is commonly used to close the "gap". If you want to learn C, go for it. Learn multiple languages such as Perl, Java. Do some exercises if you have the time, otherwise do at least a quick survey. This way you'll see what language suit...

C++ is good for anything high-level (that is anything that isn't low-level, such as most of windowed applications and games). 2)...

The Universe is not eternal because of the laws of energy and matter, we know the universe is running down on energy and not creating new energy so it has an end and if the universe has an end, it has a beginning so we're right back at the same place.
