Much easier because you need to learn a lot less vocab and grammar.

but harder because u have to give a very very detailed instructions instead of just saying what you want.

    I think the first one may be comparable, but for subsequent languages I think programming is much easier.

    Granted, I only know one language that works with people, and have worked in dozens of programming languages over the years.
