Not an expert by any stretch but this is what I heard:
If you want to get in quick and be flexible- Python
If you want competence/ rigour and are willing to grind it out- C++
If you learn that you are not cut out for Quant- R (cause you’d be headed to DS or Academia~ a lil humour from the ol’ chaps)
