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!

    To flip this around, think of some projects you want to do. The languages are just tools and will be determined by what you want to do, and then each type of project has it’s best tool chain. Think of the problem(s) you want to solve first and the rest will follow.
