    Programming. I have dabbled and written basic scripts but i just haven’t dedicated the time to learn enough for a solid foundation.

      If you decide to give it a go, I’d recommend starting either with Typescript or with Kotlin. They’re both very easy to learn. Kotlin is more powerful and the compiler error messages might be more helpful (I’m not too sure) but it has to deal with some leftover Java boilerplate in exchange.

      C# may also be worth considering but I have never used that at all.

        In my opinion, Python sounds better to start programming because it is widely used, there are thousands of tutorials for everything (from creating a calculator to an AI). It is a simple but powerful language that even children can start to learn in middle school.
