Warloch_Ahead: Every time I try to get into programming, my ADHD acts up and then it becomes an information overload. I had to get out of Comp Sci 2 in high school because I didn't learn jack shit in 1 and they didn't bother to get me up to speed. However, I'm always interested in trying to get some ideas off the ground, but I suck at math and all the computer code language may as well be alien to me.
I will ask if it's even recommended to start with Java, since that's what some resources recommend.
I don't have much experience with coding, but learning C, and by extension, C++ first, made Java easier. Coming from someone who probably has ADHD too, I find C to have far less "noise" if compared to Java. Also, learning C first would probably help as many programming languages are either based or inspired in C (and even Linux systems are based in C, as well as Android's software being written in Java, which is inspired by C).I will ask if it's even recommended to start with Java, since that's what some resources recommend.
