I have no experience with languages whatsoever. Ive read alot saying Python and Perl should be the first two out of the gate, then onto C or Java - which is what Id like to achieve.
So, Ive already started on Python which is cool.
My question is, aside from the creative aspect, is being a Programmer actuallly about memorizing EVERY single command within a given language? Or, more to do with debugging? Or, something else?
Im guessing that someone who picks up a language and applies it, usually has that languages book or tutorial nearby for reference... no?
Also, I believe I have reasonable intelligence, how long does it take to fully learn the given language if applied daily with good effort? Does it take a once through the commands, memorization, or will I have to create something to actually know the language?
All responses welcomed, thank you.
