Bartender, a coffee with cardamom for me, please! I didn't have enough sleep tonight
Hey. To learn a new language from scratch the book series "Head First" has worked great for me. I learned C# in about 2007. Currently, I'm learning Ruby, and I tried learning the basics of Go. Although I lost interest in that language, it could be useful for you. It's OK to learn in a simple way.
I'd say Python is a good language where you can start quickly, and even if I have years of using it, I learn new secrets every year (or the changes between versions). So, learning a language and how to program with it never ends (IMO)
That said, I'd recommend starting with something simple but that's useful for you. For example, I made a simple score calculator for a board game
Or a Telegram Bot to record my daily exercise
Simple stuff but it makes my life a bit easier
Interesting. Where do you find Head First?
