I'd go with Python personally, but Java is a good career move. What are you hoping to gain from it?

anonymous · Answer

hey Python is also a career move but since you already know c++ then i think you should start working on some big projects .

Sorry jaskaran, you're right, Python is good for getting work, and it seems to be getting better over time, I just thought, with a background in C++, learning Java might be the easiest way to get paid.

It depends on your objectives. 
- If you'd like to get into some backend/server side job, then opt for Python (or Perl). 
- If you'd like to write web centric or enterprise apps on the client side, go for Java.

Remember, 
Transition from C++ to Java is much simpler due to nearly same syntax
Python is a entirely a new syntax and programming paradigm for you.
