This programming language is the easiest to learn

TechRepublic, an online community of IT professionals, recently asked developers to rank the easiest-to-learn coding languages. The overwhelming response: HTML.

However, if you're just beginning your coding journey, this response is deceiving. There is a key difference between coding languages that is helpful to know:

• If you want to present data, you need to use a markup language. Examples: HTML, XML, Markdown
  
• If you want to mediate data between programs, such as connecting a database and a web server, or if you want to transform data, such as performing calculations, you need to use a programming language. Examples: Python, JavaScript, Ruby
  

While markup languages like HTML provide an entry-point into coding, developers often remark that they do not truly experience the power of code until they master a programming language. And among programming languages included in TechRepublic's survey, Python ranks as the easiest to learn.

Python, designed with an emphasis on code readability, is well-known for being an intuitive programming language for everyone from high school students to NASA engineers. That means you too can experience the power of Python, and you've already come to the best place to learn.

Our Programming with Python Pro Intensive makes learning Python easier than ever before. Complete nine weeks of exclusive curriculum, including five real-life projects, and you'll go from zero experience to a well-rounded coding foundation.

Don't wait to get going. The next session of Programming with Python begins on July 31st.
