Programming Language

I want to learn a new programming language, which I can use to create large applications such as operating systems, editing applications. I know it requires a great deal of understanding of contents, but I can not decide which language. it is either C or C++

bro, if you really are new to programming and wish, dream and plan to make large applications, then stop! First you have to start of small, you need to understand how the computer thinks and be able to think the way it think. start with JavaScript, simple as hell, then move into python- little more complicated- then go to C and C++. Yes you do have to sometimes be able to run before you can even crawl but not in this case.

That being said if you want to make large applications you alone can do so much, you need an entire team. There are at least 600 team member together making Windows.

How is that new? If you want something new, pick a language that doesn't have the same ancestry as the ones you already know. You'll get more out of it than the same old syntax with a different standard library. :icon_rolleyes:

Python could be a good start for you. It has a different syntax and it is pretty fun to play with.
