I tried C++ at first but I wasn’t able to make sense of all the information there, so I went to PHP. Later I went back to C++ and C, but kept working with PHP. Then I started with JS and the list only grew from this point.
C++, its the first language which you meet at technican university in Poland :D next step was a Python, R, Matlab, LabView… etc :) I finish with JavaScript after university :D
Like many here I started with Basic. As a kid I spent many hours typing programs from these books into my C64 to play games:
I’m surprised there isn’t more Niklaus Wirth languages listed here. My first PC language was Pascal, and in college we used Modula-2 until they switched to C.
I’ve just been cleaning out 2 years worth of projects.
My very first projects from before I knew what an editor was, to my most recent
My learning path is a little scattered.
Scratch
Java - using Processing Library (I couldn’t get functions to work XD)
HTML CSS (the first introductory course I’d ever managed to complete)
JavaScript (had trouble, someone suggested trying C might help)
C (the second introductory course I’d completed)
I joined a small discord that are making a project, so have become very motivated to learn things I’ve been avoiding…
I’d never tried anything back end before, but want to contribute in some way.
I finally tried the Terminal and started using version control in a Linux VM
Started learning SQL - PostgreSQL (tho the project wont be using it, It was a place to start)
The community voted on what languages and frameworks to use for the project… I’ve never used any of them XD
Its ganna be a bumpy ride,
but so far its been a great experience, full of discovery
Currently learning about Relational Databases and PHP…
My aim for this week is to finish cleaning up my device and to properly set up my environment in windows
