what's a good programming language to start learning now? I learned HTML/CSS/JS, and PHP. I will be going to university for comp sci next year and just want to start expanding whatever skills I have

university! !! C++

because of parallel computing hyper threading etc

If you're not familiar with strictly typed languages, getting familiar with how they work would be in your best interest for comp sci.

I learned JS first, and now I'm pulling my hair out becAUSE IT'S IN QUOTATIONS IT'S A FUCKING STRING.

Retro-learning types is a pain.

Python is pretty great. You might like something object oriented like Java, C++, Swift, etc.

I too would recommend some OO language

I second Python, it would add to your repertoire for web, but also small systems development, and it's also awesome for just about anything not requiring performance.

Design patterns are certainly interesting...
