Even so
C++ will make it easier to learn any language in my experience
I think its a great language to learn because it forces you to think about the affects of what your doing, but I think Python or Javascript would be the best way to go to get started. Things like garbage collection and pointers take a while to understand.

the memories of enduring two days of trying to fix a minor error turns me off of the idea, but I love the experience of being puzzled.
This is programming and web development in a nutshell. Those fukk ups are called bugs. As part of a coder you have to see where you fukked up or Google the solution.

That’s inevitable.

Its weird breh. Like I been dealing with computers all of my life and for the past decades I dealt with bullshyt from getting shortchanged by a nonprofit organization to growing to hate computers while working at Best Buy. I still love technology and embrace the skills of IT, but I'm in this weird slump where I don't know what to do:francis:

I mean, I'm still going to get the Macbook regardless because I want to try something new. I been dealing with Windows for all my life and just want a new beginning on the Apple side of the game.
nikka lmao unless you’re going to develop iOS apps, you don’t need a Macbook. You can get a MacBook but don’t just switch for the fukk of it. Actually do research on what the fukk you’re doing. Good luck

coding became a pain for me when I stopped paying attention to it. I don't know why you want to jump back in when you already have a degree but they're going to force you to complete at least Calculus 2 if you're looking for a degree. the college I went to was sequential from python > Java > C++ then Ruby and other languages that I never got to. there was no wiggle room there, but python is fairly easy, especially the IDE I was taught with that was made to work like java called Jython.

Web design is much easier to learn if you ask me and was a lot more fun. I didn't feel like there were as many errors when doing so.

Regardless, spend a lot of time with whatever IDE you pick if you are being serious about programming. I personally dislike the few online IDE's I used, Eclipse was the only one I actually liked. Always remember google is your friend and so is StackOverflow, Reddit, etc. Yea they can hamper your intelligence and make you an amateur since you just spend time looking for answers instead of figuring out problems, but whatever.
