For what it is worth:
I would start by learning C. Basically, C++, java, php, perl, python all
share enough similarities that they are
rather easy to pick up (Yes I know php, perl and python have less in common
which is why I put them later in the list).
Don't worry about if a language has strong or weak types.
The following tools I have found useful for 90% of what I have done
professionally (sort of in the order that I have found
them useful):
C, SQL, vi, cvs, php, ksh, cron, perl
and for certain problems/situations
lisp, ml, prolog.
If you do start with C, I would consider the following books as a good
starting point:
The C Programming Language, Kerrigan and Richie
Expert C Programming, Peter van der linden (?)
The best C++ programming book that I have read is The Design and Evolution
of C++. Unfortunately, I didn't
find The C++ Programming Language to be useful at all.
Just my 2 cents worth.
