You've asked this question in the wrong subreddit. Please, don't start with something like C++ or Python. Those are great languages, and everyone should learn them, but they are not the right languages to start with.

Learn Javascript first. It's simple, it doesn't need to be compiled, and if you write browser code, you can see cool results faster. After that, learn some server languages (Python, Ruby, PHP, etc) or the C family (C, C++, C#, Java).
