Hi @niallon11 and thank you very much for your feedback.

Regarding your troubles to start coding, I would do something like this: what do I want to do? Web Development? Desktop Apps? Mobile Apps?

Pick one thing and focus on it.

If you want to do desktop or mobile apps, learning Java is a great start. For web development, you can go for HTML+ CSS and Javascript.

Follow some simple tutorials regarding the language of your choosing just for you to watch things working and get some enthusiasm. Then focus on trying to understand the logical structure of the code you followed.

The New Boston's youtube channel is a great source of coding tutorials, I highly advise you to check it out. Also, you might want to check Dev Ed's youtube channel as he got some good stuff as well.

The following step would be learning pseudocode as it would allow you to solidify your coder's logic.

Also, you might want to check my article regarding the creation of cool projects as it might help you have another perspective on this subject.

I hope this helps you! Keep it up!
