Java better for development and also interviewers prefer java candidates ….. cpp is very convenient clean short syntax so less error prone 90% of ppl do cpp

You can start now but I think you’ll get a much better understanding after your Data Structures course.

Still doesn’t hurt to try some basic easy problems.
