    If you want a good understanding of the fundamentals etc, I cannot recommend CS50 enough. The original is more difficult and starts with basic stuff (you’ll be asking the computer for individual pieces of memory etc)

    There’s also a python focused version, which is much easier. But this will make learning other languages in the future a bit more tricky. So, depends what you’d prefer.

    Both are taught by David Malan, a Harvard professor who is easily one of the best lecturers I’ve seen.

    Good luck!

    Edit: Should’ve mentioned, they are all free or you can pay for a cert with edx.

      +1 for CS50. This is where I started and I’ve since transitioned to python. I think the basics will make you a better programmer overall (instead of python first), but it really depends on what you’re looking for.

        Free to take the course through the sites I linked (includes ways to submit andbhave homework checked.)

        No idea about edx but if you google cs50 I think edx tends to be among the top results.
