C derivatives are similar in terms of things like imperative control flow, lower-case keywords like if
, mostly insignificant whitespace, { }
-delimited blocks, etc., but they can be vastly different in terms of features, semantics, idioms, and typical use cases.
It’s like how non-programming languages can use the same Latin alphabet but be vastly different in terms of grammar and culture.
Python is easy to learn and marketable. I personally prefer Ruby to Python, but Python is a good place to start. For most AAA games, it’s C++, and yes it’s horrendously complex. I vastly prefer Rust to C++. Good old C is actually a fairly small language, and only moderately difficult.
I don’t do it for the money. I do it because I like doing it.
