Python or C++ For Beginners?

Programming Support
#1

I’m going to high school next year and will be forced to use line code instead of block code. I’ve never line coded before and have used block coding for my middle school seasons.
Can someone give me ideas on if I should learn C++ or Python over the summer?
Thanks!

I had another question. My cousin is learning how to program, so I asked her for some tips. She told me that Replit is a good way to learn and practice. Unfortunately, my school’s admin has this blocked, but I might be able to access it with a different account and device.
If anyone is familiar with Replit, would you recommend it for me and maybe give me a brief overview of what it is? I heard it’s an app that includes 70+ coding languages, but if anyone is familiar with it could you please give me an overview and if you would recommend it?
Thanks!

The best way to figure out what replit is is to go on the website. It’s free.

I suppose you are correct. Thank you!
