probably if you don't program already, unlikely if you do, they are more similar than different once you know the three classes (imperative, functional, logical)

I suspect an amount of the same in human language, where learning french if you know spanish is less lift than learning a tonal language like mandarin

similar results from (eg.) learning music can be found, the underlying pattern seems to be learning things that are very very new to you, and challenge the brain, benefits the brain
