What programming language is business folks friendly?


I will be teaching introductory programming to students at a business school. What programming language should I choose?

Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Python is a pretty good all around language though. If you're in business school and will deal with numbers often, then it will be very beneficial due to the numerous math-related packages.

Not really programming languages, but Turing complete: HTML and CSS. Useful for business students and allow to ease in into more traditional programming eventually, even if it's Javascript.
