I have graduated from school with a Computer Networking degree and have found myself in a small town with little to no use for the degree. I am now wanting to move into putting programming under my belt as well. I have the drive and want, the problem is I don't have the direction. I have no clue where to go and how to learn programming. doing the work is not the problem, I have no objection about that at all, I cant figure out what to learn first, what to read first, what to focus on or how to do it all. Its like wanting to become a great Olympic swimmer and just being thrown in the pool for the first time to splash and thrash with no direction. I don't want any one to do the work for me but I need a mentor i guess you could say. Please let me know your thoughts on this. I am open to hearing anything, constructive preferably.
 


Solution
Every serious programmer should know C/C++ because they are used everywhere. On the other hand, they might not be the easiest languages to begin with. Script languages like Python or Ruby are gaining popularity and are supposedly easy and fast to program with. Java is also quite popular and easy. Or you could try something very different. For example, Haskell which is a functional programming language (C, C++, Python, Ruby, Java are all imperative languages).

It really depends on what you want to do. Just choose one language and stick with it (one I mentioned or something else). After you have learned one language it's easier to learn another. The Internet is full of tutorials you can read/watch to learn. Here's one for C++...
By learning to code can, without a doubt change the career progress of your life. This valuable skill set can get you high-paying jobs with numerous benefits and perks, not to mention stability and work/life balance. There are plethoras of that offer learning possibilities to those who are venturing in this field. If you are one of them thinking of enrolling in a coding bootcamp in California as a beginner,
 


Since you want to be a programmer, you should go to a bigger city, with more possibilities, and take some courses. This will help you get important information about programming and hacking and then find many job offers. These 2 topics are quite current today, and such a job is well paid. All you have to do is find some quality courses and start working in this field. I was also particularly interested in hacking in games, and on Link Removed, I found different courses that I went to, which helped me learn many valuable things. I also recommend you to browse their website.
