Vanesa,

You can see some discussion on this here (though it is not necessarily comparisons between the syntax).

I was a Cobol programmer who had to turn to PL/1. I think I could pick up it in a week or so (of course, being familiar to C helped). I believe, once you have the programming concept in one procedural language, you can pick up any other procedural language easily because the basic concept is same.
