I am a programmer so I'll give a few comments...
I'm trying to choose a language to learn programming.
Very well and admirable. Programming is nothing mysterious. Juat a
rigorous application of logic. IMO creating a computer program is not all
that much different from writing a piece of music.
but I don't have particular project on my table.
This is somewhat of a problem. You can get tutorial books, but unless you
have something in mind that you want to do the tutorial books can become
dead ends.
So I was wondering if a good idea wouldn't be to use the same language as
lilypond
If Lilypond is written in C++ (and I do see some hints of C type syntax when
I use Lilypond) this *might* be a factor to consider. But... C and C++ are
fairly complex languages and have steep learning curves. If you an abject
beginner with programming I suggest starting out with Visual Basic and
concentrating on trying to develop good programming practices. That will
make a switch to a more difficult language easier.
Good luck!
