Shoutout to the person who told me to start with Python
I tried learning to code about six months ago and jumped straight into C++ because I heard it was powerful. I spent two weeks just trying to get 'Hello World' to run and felt totally lost. A friend in Seattle told me to switch to Python and start with a simple project, like a number guessing game. I did that last month and finished the whole thing in an afternoon. The code was so much easier to read and I could actually see what each line was doing. Now I'm working on a small script to organize my downloads folder and it feels doable. That switch from a hard language to a beginner-friendly one made all the difference. What was the first real project you guys finished that made you feel like you could actually do this?
