javascript is the language to learn in the next ten years

In my opinion, no language will “get you a good job.” Python and JavaScript are both worthy languages to learn.

To answer your question @umeya_kassim, it really depends on what your goals are. Will this be your first time learning a programming language? Are you learning for fun, or is your main goal to enter the job market?

A wise mentor once told me, focus on your fundamentals. Once you've got a grasp on that, learning new technologies and languages comes naturally!

Python and JS get you better jobs than McDonald's... ;)
