Java is an awful language to start with, it's inefficient and incomparable to c++ which is superior. If your starting programming you should start with vb.net which will give you programming fundamentals and enable you to create advanced applications quickly (impossible in java and c++) although progressing to a more commercial programming language like c++ is fundamental if you want a job in programming or are planning to write applications which require number crunching and speed like an operating system or a rendering engine. BTW I am also 15.
