I’m going to hate myself if all I’m going to do is rely on other devs to make my ideas happen.

so yeah, I want to learn programming now, anyone can recommend me somewhere to study?

Thanks in advance.

    I came to this thread to recommend CS50, but looks like you already found it.

    Keep working with cs50; it’s a wonderful introduction.

    I can’t tell you how long it will take you to learn these languages because everyone learns differently. Plus, you can already start working on projects while learning these languages; you don’t need to be an expert before you start. Plus, you learn more while working on projects and learning stuff at the same time.

    This sounds really cliche, but focus on the road, not the destination; you will learn lots of stuff, and there is no clear destination, anyway; you will always be learning new stuff, even when you become an expert.

    I recommend you not only focus on the specific language, but also make sure you are actually learn the concepts being taught well. Lots of programming concepts are language-agnostic and are available across many or most languages, especially languages that belong to the same category (e.g. object-oriented languages).

    I hope this was helpful. Have lots of fun!!

      thanks, I’ll stay on this road then. I’m learning on CS50 as we speak. I really hope I can do it.

          I read this just now, I can’t really say anything, but, thanks for the encouragement, you made me smiled a bit, I’ll definitely work hard. and don’t say stuff like that again. I’m really not ready for this kind of comment.
