If you’re from a non English speaking country, do you first have to learn English if you want to get into programming?

    Well, in ex-USSR there is 1C which in syntax is a bit like Pascal with Russian instead of English.

    Also plenty of other languages using Russian keywords, but for the purpose of your question - I think it’s safe to assume that anything relevant uses English.

      That’s “One S”, not “One C”, for anyone reading this unfamiliar with Cyrillic. What looks like a Latin C is actually a Cyrillic S.

      Also, while we’re at it, leat’s clear up one more misunderstanding: Many think СССР is Cee Cee Cee Pee, but it’s not, it’s really SSSR.
