CoQ - Regarding Coding

[xAnthal]

Hello fellow MPGH users,

My dream to code has grown stronger over the past years, but i still have less to no coding experiences.

I'm starting in "Application Design" next semester and wanted to know where to begin i was thinking of "C++" i want to grow particulary in that direction later on because i want to start "Game Design" in a couple of years and i've read couple of things that "C++" is the most used language for "Game Design".

My question for you guys is the following:

- Am i too old? (22 years)
- Is talent a must in coding?
- Where should i start?
- I want to learn most of it within 1 year is this possible? ( 3-4 hours a day)

PS: I can't learn very well from books/pdf's need some explanation like pictures or videos.


Thanks in advance,

Yours xAnthal.

1 - Am i too old? (22 years)
2 - Is talent a must in coding?
3 - Where should i start?

1 - Never too old to learn (:
2- No, just be creative when it comes to making up what you are willing/wanting to make.(extra functions other programs don't have etc.)
3 - (I fail at reading) Try following a course, that gives you homework etc.(this way you'll learn theoratically and practically.).
4 - If you really are willing to keep on learning, every day, yeah, maybe.

hope this helps a bit, I'm learning myself too ^^
