The real question is, what do you want to be able to do with your code?

Websites?
Phone Apps?
Desktop Applications?
Games?
AI / Machine Learning?
Something Else?

When you can answer that, then you can be pointed into the correct direction.

@C0D4 I want to make video games for sure. First I want to start with phone games for the experience then eventually move to computer games

Step 1. Learn Lua (total basics will be enough)
Step 2. Download Love2D and go through tutorial on their website.
Step 3. Have fun

Having a red sqare on a black background respond to keypresses was one of the best experiences I had in my dev life.

@infinite-lifes i made my first game in c++ 😂

The "controllable red square over black bg" feeling of success was amazing

Good times

@Paralyze why start with phone games they aren't any easier to make.
My advise would be to start out with something like game maker or unity then you avoid having to learn to code the engine, for a beginner would be the biggest road block.
Plus there is a massive amount of tutorials for both which would be specific to your goal of making a game
