Yeah never recommend C++ right off the bat. I know you're a python fan Erasmus but I feel there are better languages out there (dumber versions of java, java itself, c#) that are more suited to a beginner. I say this because Python has a weird flexibility that can confuse a beginner later on when suddenly they find they cant stick ints and strings in the same array :3

But! As others have said if you want some help on the programming side, let me know!
