What can be your first programming language ?? A hefty task. With all the various options from C to Java to PHP, it can prove really difficult to choose a language to start with. Generally, most of the people end up with the one which is recommended by their academic curriculum but it should be entirely the preference of the programmer and I'm here to help you choose yours.
Well, lets sort it difficulty wise (or rather efficiency wise).
1. LOGO : This will be the easiest of all languages with most basic commands but it won't teach you anything more than writing commands and executing them.
2. BASIC : Far better than LOGO if you really wanna get into sequential programming and start off with writing 'programs'.
3. PYTHON : This can be said as simplicity meets efficiency. This programming language can be real simple to learn as a beginner and tend to be useful even for a mature programmer.
4. C++ : Can be considered as the most extensively used programming language. Its basic feature is that it has higher level abstraction while being close enough to the hardware.
5. JAVA : The most popular object oriented language with Write Once Run Anywhere (WORA). Its simpler than C++ but a little abstract in terms of hardware utilization.
6. C : Probably the earliest and most popular programming language in the world. No language can claim to have had as much of an impact on computing as C has since its inception. Has got everything but simplicity.
P.S. : To those who couldn't comprehend yet which language to start with, better start off with Assembly and the entire programming community will be grateful for you.
