What language to learn?

I want to be able to do two things:

  1. Creat an application that allows me to enter data from a database an do basic callculations, diagrams, search, etc.

  2. Create a Webpage with ordering function.

Hi Aris, you definitely need to know basics of HTML and CSS to make a website. To create an app you described, JavaScript and PHP will do.
