Is Rust worth it in the long term of a 16 year old?
I know it's the daily "should I learn rust?" question, but I have some questions.
I’m 16 and want learn a low level language. I know some *very basic* \- like fizzbuzz level - Python and am trying C (because of cs50 online) and for some reason found the syntax of a low(er) level language more appealing, more clear to read and heard that once you learn a low level language, learning higher level languages will be a lot easier.
Should I start to learn Rust now with the goal of getting a job after university (around 6 years from now)
I’ve done some research about Rust and it’s features and read into the rust book. I don't care if it takes me a long time to even get to an intermediate level, if I know that it's going to pay off in the long run. With web apps getting more popular than ever I've done some research about WASM - which looks exciting and seems to have the potential to grow a lot in the future - and read that Mozilla is investing heavily in WASM support for Rust and it is very easy to get working.
But am I better of learning a language that will definitely will be still used in the future like C++ *despite it's flaws,* or should I go with Rust?
note:
I know that most programers are fluent in more than one language, but at this stage, I just want to focus on one, learn the most important concepts and master it.
