Welcome back! Programming is one of my favorite things to do (not really, but just go along with it),so if you’re a new programmer, you maybe wondering about some programming languages to learn, so let’s talk about some programming languages you shouldn’t learn!

Perl

First up we have Perl, a general-purpose language that was fairly popular years ago, nowadays it’s definitely not as popular as before, check out the TIOBE index chart below:

I have seen that Perl is still used at some of the biggest companies out there, but if you plan on learning a single language, Perl may not be the best way to go since there’s less interest in this language than ever before. Like I mentioned, there are still positions/projects out there that are focused around this language, but if you’re a new coder, Perl is probably not the best one to start off with.

Objective-C
