/g/ I'm interested in starting to teach myself to code.

First of all, don't waste time deciding what programming language you choose first. The concepts will carry over to other languages if you want to switch later. I'd recommend Python, Lua, or C. Pick one and just get started ASAP.

>>55769238, Python for sure, then C then whatever.

Also, that anime character is editing audio or viewing the stock market.

can confirm don't think just go DON'T WASTE TIME OPEN NOTEPAD RIGHT NOW GO GO GO GET YOUR HANDS MOVING PROGRAM LIKE YOUR VIRGINITY DEPENDS ON IT GO

Maybe just resource graphs of several nodes or servers?

But it probably does, if you're a fat ugly slob then the only way to get laid is thanks to money...

>>55769253
Books or whatever to learn python ?

>>55769238
>>55769253
Thanks for the replies.

And yeah i know she isn't "programming" i just posted it because it was computer related haha.

>>55769238
>>55769253
Also, do you have any recommendations to sites/tutorials for learning python?

>>55769369
http://docs.python.org

>>55769417
But what about someone that has never programmed before ? those docs are more for people that know how to code already.

>>55769417
>>55769467
Yeah, i'm completely new to programming.

I think what anon meant is just start typing shit, which is kinda stupid. Just whatever you do make sure you are learning python 3.X not 2.X, 2.X is okay but 2 and 3 are basically differant languages just 3 is better.

>>55769488
I wish i could help but i was taught my first language in person, i'm not sure where i would start if i knew nothing. Do you know the basic theory of programing? Like Scratch tier stuff?

One of the best beginners-friendly books about low level programming I've ever read.

pick one

Nope. Forth is a very simple language (much simpler than C), so it gives you complete understanding about all the stuff under the hood. You can even read memory dumps of your working program and parse them in mind. Also, you won't have any problems with pointer arithmetic, if someday you'll decide to learn C.
