It is not a mandate, scripting languages are way more easier to learn. One can opt scripting languages but the granddaddy C has it footprint in almost all the languages.

Yes of course. But programming is moving towards a more GUI oriented approach but you must have understood the basic roles of various statements.

If you are a beginner then you can choose C or Python Programming language. But the essence of programming lies in solving problems rather than the programming language itself. Try to improve your problem solving skills in any language.
