laptop for programming

[Alexntxir]

Hello everyone.I will start a masters degree in February (mathematical engineering)and i am looking for a laptop that i can use at the university for programming,coding etc. I think at the master we will use matlab,python and c++
is it better to get mac os or windows with dual boot linux?My budget is max 1500 euros
i have found 3 laptops that i like
i will use the laptop most for coding,programming,watching a movie on the go ,learning using linux and perhaps gaming (two of the optiona only allow light gaming but i will have also have my pc for gaming )
1)macbook 2017-->https/www.amazon.co.uk/Apple-13-Inch-Macbook-Retina-Space/dp/B071K84QM1/ref=pd_sbs_147_10?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=2ZHY2EA9RPP6T6JMC46F
2)xps 13 2017 --> http/www.dell.com/nl-be/shop/dell-laptops/xps-13/spd/xps-13-9360-laptop
3)dell 7577 2017 (with 1060 gpu) -->http/www.dell.com/nl-be/shop/dell-laptops/inspiron-15-7000-gaming-laptop/spd/inspiron-15-7577-laptop

I mean you can also just get a refurbished latitude e6230 laptop for 200€ and it will do everything except gaming since all of those tasks are extremely light weight.

Getting a mac for programming is kinda dumb since you'll have to write programs for windows or a linux distro 99% of the time so you have to work in a virtual windows enviroment on it then.
