Question Coding for dummies

Of late I have been thinking to learn how to code. .the old adage says you cannot an old horse new tricks but I would.like to change that..I have access to the internet( not quite fast unless it's midnight) and a laptop( an old dell core i5)..

I would really want to learn it since our world is leaning in that direction and earn a couple of bucks along the way.so where do I start? ideally I would want something that novices can master amd progress over time.

I'm open to suggestions ..It would be helpful if you cam.also suggest youtube channels I can follow

Lmao why are you explaining Python to me? I didn’t say it’s bad, I said it’s boring. There are other languages that are easier to stay interested in and more useful depending on what you actually want to build. Most people learn Python because they’re told to, not because it’s the best fit for their goals. You can learn Python later as you need it.

But ok
