Now, there are a ton of programming languages for you to choose from. You have Python, you have C, you have C++, you have SQL, you have C#, you have Java, Swift. And the list goes on forever. However, my point is not to sit here and overwhelm you with the number of languages that exist, but it's important for you to understand, first of all, why the languages might exist and, second of all, which language should you start off with first, right, which is actually the most important question for you and you wanna know which language to pick.

Imagine you were trying to build a video game and you wanted to put it on an interactive website. Using programming, you could build your very own game that nobody has built in the very specific way that you want it built, and you could put it on your very own interactive, fun website.
