Hi

I was chatting with my sister tonight and she was very proud to tell me
she had learned to program in DAX. I know nothing of DAX, she explained
it was a language used with PowerBI (which is apparently like excel on
steroids) for reporting.

She wants to learn more about programming and wants me to suggest a
language she can learn. I asked her what sort of thing she would like to
program, and she said "I'd like to do better reporting and use a better
program than PowerBI"

Anyway, as reporting and PowerBI and DAX are not something I know about,
I was wondering if someone had a suggestion for a language she could
learn?

I was originally thinking of suggesting a general purpose language like
javascript or Swift (she has a macbook pro) but that she wants to learn
more about reporting sounds like maybe something else might be better?

Something not to difficult, but then something that would be useful, and
i guess something with similar syntax to DAX might be the way to go?
