I’d say python is not my first language (Anaconda is the distribution that helps you run the code vs python which is the code itself).
Im not a trained computer science coder, but I’ve dabbled in it throughout my 20 year working career. (I’m not young, but I’m not “old”)
The first language I learned was C++ which was an intro class I took in college. I’ve taught myself Visual Basic to do excel macros for work and taught myself an ANSYS language (any mechanical engineers out there would know what this is).
I just like to learn and get dirty so I’ve always just picked up manuals and started doing stuff.
1. It’s never too late
2. Coding is just logic so anyone can do it
3. To hell with staying in your lane, go break shit!!!
4. The internet is amazing, these new languages make things much easier to code and with YouTube you can find anything you need on the internet, it’s amazing.
I’d say download anaconda and go for it!! Do the tutorial!
