Coding?

[Daley]

Just want to know when and how you little coders learnt to code, more importantly where you learnt to code. To be honest, I wouldn't mind starting to learn, I've just never knew to look, as there aren't many "friendly beginner tutorials". More aiming this at that the Developers, but anybody who can help/direct me, would be much appreciated!

Cheers everyone!

Youve got a lot of youtube tutorials, website courses you can partake for free. Aslong as you know what you are looking for typing it into google will get you results .

I learned Lua a few years back for Just Cause 2 Multiplayer, mix of their documentation and looking at others' work

For web languages (HTML, CSS, PHP, JS) I used https://www.w3schools.com/

and for SQF (Arma's code) I just dabbled in trying things and following tutorials on youtube

What is it you're trying to learn?

Honestly the first step is to just fuck around with whatever language it is watching videos/reading tutorials specific to what you need, as you’re learning don’t be afraid to copy code and then edit it to learn and achieve your end goal. (Obviously don’t publish copied code)

These two are good for getting started and will teach you the basics of whatever you fancy. If you need help with further coding problems, you can look on stackoverflow.com

I want to learn C# maybe. I've got a Jailbroken PS3, and quite like messing with things on that, so it would be nice to have a little project of my own and see where it can take me. I also wouldn't mind coding a discord bot, or as you said, SQF, stuff for Arma. It's always interested me, I've just never known where to look, as coding is such a big topic in itself.

No I wouldn't do that, hopefully I can take it somewhere. Like I said @Bob Wilkinson, I really wouldn't mind making a little personal project that I can always work on.

Thanks man! Did codecademy at school, but they stopped doing the lessons on code, and turned it into powerpoints and that ;~( Will definitely have another go though, cheers!
