This is a good series as it explains lots of thing you need to learn as beginners .
Also it is not long and gets to the point very quickly .
It is simple and pretty easy to follow .
C# is a great beginner language as C++ is based off of the C language .
Do not let people tell you it is hard or takes a long time that all depends on you not them .
I hope this help you and Motivates you . The more you understand the language and how it works
the more you understand what is going on and it all becomes more clear to you as it has me .
Though it does take time but it is knowledge you gain .
