Hasn't python replaced BASIC?<br>
/me ducks and hides for cover.<br>

Besides this, programming languages are "tools". This means, like<br>
everywhere in real life, "no tool fits all needs", each is better or<br>
less suitable for certain use-cases, as well as there are other factor<br>
to be considered, such as "popularity" (availability of documentation,<br>
examples, number of people/friends being able to assist), long term<br>
stability/availability/sustainability of a programming language,<br>
availability of libraries to one will want to reuse etc.<br>
<br>
That said, I'd choose "C" to getting started. It's a bit of a rough ride<br>
in the beginning, but it pays off in longer terms.<br>
