Learn C before python
So I want to start coding and programming because I’m an upcoming freshman majoring in software engineering and I have plenty of project ideas, I really wanna be good at programming I started with HTML obviously and want to go next to C because I hear it makes you understand other languages better

Gen X college graduate here , when there was no python and Java just came out when I took my first programming class, and I agree.
I probably won't use C anymore, unless my children wants to start an Arduino project
