I chanced upon a ‘wiki how to’ on the web and one link led to another. Before I knew it I was drawn to http://www.wikihow.com/Learn-a-Programming-Language
I loved the opening so much, and I know a man who won’t be able to resist responding to the very first sentence of the very first point:
“Choose a programming language. Don’t dive into anything hard like C++ for your first language; it’s best to learn from something a bit easier first. Python is a good starter language.”
