Well, for a whole generation that started with 8bit computers, BASIC was
the introduction to programming.
Nowadays I favor REXX, -or as of late, NetRexx, now open source- for
"Human-Centered programming", in MFC's own words. :)

Rene Jansen says: "NetRexx offers a nice way to write Java programs,
without Java's C-heritage syntax".

Chip Davis <http://www.rexxla.org/images/officers/chip.jpg>, former
president of RexxLA, chimes in with his opinion: "The fact that PL/I and
object-oriented ooRexx have incorporated C syntax has more to do with the
pervasion of perversion, IMHO."
