If you actually want to become a full time professional 
programmer Pascal and Delphi are pretty good choices. 
They will force you into adopting good habits that will
be useful in any future languages you use. I still use 
Delphi when I need to produce a compiled Windoze program.

However if you just want to learn to program for occasional 
or personal use then Python is much easier, thats why 
I wrote my tutor in it :-)
