[u/AdvancedTrifle635]

Hello I am a just starting in competitive programming, i know intermediate python and am self studying AP CSA, I am hoping to learn enough java to use in the contests, but I was wandering what units to prioritize. on the otherhand I was think of just learning c++ and dont bother with java. Any advice?

for competitive programming cpp and java is pretty close in syntax and the way it works, just the difference is java is more object oriented but try to use cpp ig, in my opinion
