I'm currently preparing a 1 semester programming course for
beginners. (on Linux) And I'm in a quandary as to what
to teach.
The previous two semesters I've taught 9 weeks of C followed by
a 9 week mish mash of Perl, PerlTk, Fortran, C++, Python, whatever.

Next semester I'm thinking of teaching 9 weeks of C++ and 9 weeks of
Python. For a change. I'll be learning as I teach.
Which should I teach first, Python or C++ ?
Neither? what then?
If any one has suggestions as to where th e best place to start
learning to program is I'd be interested in your comments.
