Hello house, i have been learning java for about 3 weeks now, at one networking, web hosting and fibre optics company at ikeja.
A software engineer in the company although he is not working for the company but a freelance java progrmmer is training me, it is a 3 - months training.
I love it so much, we finished, java oops, constructors in java, static keyword, java inheritance, right now i am in java overriding.
Now someone is telling me java is outdated, that i should leave it and do C#, CSS and HTML
I am so confused
I checked the 10 most used apps in the world and java is still among 10 3.

You should start with something really simple like Borland Pascal if it's still exists in any way or form, or maybe go directly to C or C++. It's really worth it for teaching. Java/Javascript is for sure way more popular, but not that easy to start with I would say from my own experience.

I’m surprised someone told me to learn C# first?
If he understand Java then any other language is easy to understand.
I don’t have a mentor and don’t have anybody to teach me Java but I learn CSS,HTML, Python and Java and Kotlin through YouTube.
I’m not a professional but I already developing some apps for myself with Kotlin.
