The Java thing sounds totally uninteresting

Again, about fundamentals. I actually wanna do python since is seems more "fun" but I wanna get all the basics down. And I did read after you have learned the harder languages, learning other languages comes much easier.

But I'll look into Haskell. Thank you!

I don’t remember being that impressed with HTDP but it’s been a while and I didn’t look much. I’d say read SICP first in either case.

I actually read that HTDP was written to be read before SICP, because they thought that for a beginner, some of the core fundamentals in SICP may be missed.
