I’ve been wanting to learn how to code for a while so I figure now is as good a time as any to start. I downloaded VS code on my laptop for python but I don’t really know end product I should try to code and I also am just bad and barely know what I’m doing. Does anyone here have any advice on what to code and how best to learn?

    Started with C++, definitely wasn’t easy. I ended up giving up

    I made it about as far as std::cout << "Hello World!"; and couldn’t figure out wtf cout was or progress from there.

    Eventually, nearly a year later, I started over with a simpler language (Basic) and maybe five after that I realised my IDE just wasn’t setup right - so cout literally did nothing at all.
