BASIC is the easiest language to learn.  From there you could learn Fortran,
Pascal, or C.  C would be the most useful but is also the most difficult.

The next computer language to try to learn is Pascal.  It is easier to work
with than C and is taught as the first programming language in college. 
After learning pascal it is easier to pick up most other languages.
