Dan di wikiAnswer:

The two best options for High-Level Programming are Java and C++. If you are serious about programming, then you should first learn C++ and then Java. If this is a skill you would like to learn on the side, I would recommend Java. The reasons for this are as follows:

• If you are serious about programming, C++ will give you unparalleled control of the machine. C++ includes many features that allow you to solve problems using data structures at unmatched speeds for a high-level language. Java is recommended as a second language because it is widely used and extremely useful, but it is less powerful than C++ and slower.
• If you are not serious about programming, Java will work well. It is a very easy to use and well designed language. As a casual programmer, the reduced speed will not be noticeable, and the powerful features of C++ will not be useful.
• If you are serious about programming, avoid learning Java first. Only when you consider yourself comfortable with C++ should you move on to Java. Compare the two languages to driving a stick shift car vs. driving an automatic. The latter is nicer, and perfectly fine if you are merely a casual driver, but if you are considering becoming a professional driver, you should be proficient at both. The same holds true for Java and C++.

Jadi buat yang kebagian tugas nyusun2 kurikulum, ada baiknya artikel ini jadi masukan. Sebaiknya pembelajaran diprioritaskan pada c++ dan java. Ga cuma di matkul OOPnya. Dengan c++ kita bisa belajar memanage memori secara manual. Juga bisa belajar bagaimana pemrograman prosedural dan bedanya dengan OOP. Kemudian diteruskan dengan java yang kebanyakan disebut sebagai bahasa pemrograman OOP sejati. Lebih stabil dalam manajemen memori, karena ada garbage collectionnya. Selain itu kelebihannya yang “write once run everywhere” patut jadi pertimbangan. Selain itu ada IDE gratis yang handal macem netbeans. Dengan demikian java bisa menjadi bahasa yang berprospek. Jadi ga rugi kan belajar c++ n java.
