Re: Seeking advice for rookie programming

I've found the best language is the one that the team knows. If your mentors know c++ you should use c++. If your mentors are familiar with Java, you should use Java. Having access to a living encyclopedia on a subject is insanely useful. I say this having been both a student and a mentor.

"oh hey I wonder how to do this thing."
"Java has a thing for that."

VS

"oh hey I wonder how to do this thing."
commences googling and experimenting for an hour/ 5 hours.
