Hello friends, the title is mostly self explanatory. I would like to start programming but I also feel like I am not very smart, so I would like a programming language that is easier to grasp than others. That considered I don’t hope to be able to learn something “powerful” but it would be nice to still be able to do some useful things. Something I would love to do is make games, I know those are usually made in C, which is a very difficult one, but maybe some simpler games can be made with other languages.
I can recommend Python, Lua or JavaScript. All are interpreted languages so you don’t have to worry about setting up a build step, and the languages are solid and should be possible to learn without prior experience.
If you want to make games, don’t worry about learning a specific programming language at first. You can transfer your skills pretty well when it comes to programming.
And if you are stuck you could try visual languages like MakeCode or Scratch.
Thank you, it’s pretty encouraging to consider that skills transfer relatively easy if I do decide to move onto something else, it’s not something I considered.
