Python is *the* best language for beginner, especially self-learner. It is not only With C/C++ you will get bogged down with boring details from very beginning -- details with Python will take care for you, like variable types, etc.

Just compare simple task, like printing song "99 bottles on the wall" in:

• C (kernel module style - like C should be used),
• Java (with all the object obsession as standard Java uses all the time),
• C++
• Python
• Perl ( very idiomatic)

Each language has other version, but I tried to link most idiomatic solution (as the language is used in real life)
