>Think PHP vs. Python, PHP may cut few corners but it's not ideal language for teaching generic concepts.

Maybe not even Python, suggest go or rust. My generation we started learning CS with Pascal and moved to C, when we had a bit more understanding.

I think it's "Python will teach you more about programming, C will teach you more about computers".

I'm not intimate with Go, but I figure its clean and simple design makes it a good first language; and in particular a good preparation for C, because of its focus on memory layout.

Rust? NO! One of the worst choices for a first language. Similar to C++, Rust is really heavy on concepts.
