I started with Basic and then 6502 assembly. I found C easy to learn
and C++ was a beast because I did not get OOP. I then found Python to
be even harder because it is so powerful and not like other languages
that I knew. I really think C is quite easy. C++ is just C plus some
other stuff like OOP. You got the OOP from Python so that should be
easy. C++ does have its own style of OOP but that is not hard.
Learning the Blender Code base, I think, would be the hardest part.
Currently my favorite language is Python. If you really want to step
out, take a look at Prolog. That is a cool one because it has a view
point that you don't see much in other languages. You want hard, try
learning German, my current nightmare. :-) (From the USA)
