    it is very hard to belive you learned lua when you were 10... I am 11 and I have not even learned about programming simple games yet!

    Scratch is a good gateway pseudo-programming language to start with. It basically just teaches you logic and that sort of stuff. Python is also a nice and easy one, but it relies heavily on indentation, which will force you to make your code look neat (yet again, this is also a blessing in disguise if you want to move onto Lua or more advanced languages such as C++).

     Scratch is nice, but it was so simple it was complicated (If you get what I'm saying. Basiclly it's simplicity makes some tasks harder, forcing you to find a overly complicated solution. It's fun to start with though)

    I learned to Y-Combinate as a fetus.

    You can make a note using notepad or anything you can write on and write everything you have learned so that you can come back to it when there is something you need to know. This is what I usually do when I learn a new programming language.

    EVERYONE FORGOT ABOUT QBASIC
    First programming language I ever tried when I was like..9 or something.

    Also I hate python because I keep putting semicolons at the end of each line. Making a bot for a random chat channel is the only thing I've ever used python for.
    HTML+CSS+JavaScript is my favorite.
