hello, new member here

i'm going to be completely honest here, have little/no experience with programming, though tons of people have told me it's pretty easy

figured i'd come here and learn how to do it

welcome to lg.

dont be afraid to ask questions.

i've been developing for the better side of a decade and I still find myself getting help from the community here.

Well first things first, you gotta choose what language you want to program in.

sorry for the late response!

i've played around with python for a bit, never could quite get the hang of it.

java looks easier to me, but at the same time i have no clue what to do with it (if that makes any sense)

[Kingz V]

i'll be real straight.

Java is a huge language, but unless you want trk in software development for life it's really not a friendly language.

(especially if you want to write bots)

I will recommend Head First Java for a beginners book. It's very well written while staying entertaining.

Java is definitely not beginner-friendly. It's all about object-oriented programming, which isn't exactly intuitive for a new programmer.
