I originally posted this as a LinkedIn contribution. Making sure you can read it on my blog πŸ˜€

If it’s your first programming language, the language itself doesn’t matter. It’s the thought process that counts. The training to:

  • think logically,
  • break a problem or process into its component parts, and
  • understanding how those parts intermingle.

If you’re just looking to learn another programming language, you don’t need to spend money. There are FANTASTIC free tutorials out there. Check out Microsoft Learn https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/ as a good starting point. You can follow entire tracks, or just one-off topics. There are videos, code examples, coding environments, tips and tricks, and more. To be fair, MS Learn is not the only option, but I only have 750 characters and you have a search engine.
