What beginner programming language is suitable for developing minor programs?

I have learnt some basic command line interpreters, and created a few scripts using them, so I am familiar with the protocols of creating programs, and required to know if there is a simple programming language, capable of developing minor applications, such as alarms, and auto clickers.





Not bothering with C++, too complicated currently.





Additionally, if you could post a link to x programming language's tutorial, that would be great.

Python is a helpful and friendly language for a beginner. As well as letting you run programs contained in files, you can try out the effects of each command at the Python prompt.
