Hi guys...
I've deceided I need to learn a programming language, in order to take some professional things in my own hands rather than watching things happen...
What is my plan:
I want to be able to programm client-server apps.
mobile and desktop apps will send and receive data from sql server
a beautiful and practical web interface will handle that data
What is my background:
I am 36 yo and been in front of a pc since I was 12...I have worked with ms dos 5.0, ms dos 6.22, nearly all windows version, a punny yet comprehensive ubuntu experience,I'm a Cisco Certified Network Associate so I have a very good understanding of networks in physical and logical layer, and I'm an electronics hardware techinician by proffession so I also have an excellent understanding of computer hardware and other electronics hardware protocols like rs485.
I think python should be easy to evolve considering my age, and also should be able to allow me to do my plans..
I need some advice from expert programmers, (maybe some pros are here from firaxis or other software companies with great experience) on what should I choose for first language considering I'm a 36yo with a full time job and a full time family with an infant child therefore limited day time, maybe only dedicated weekends, and the fact that I really really need to know how to "tie my laces by myself" when it comes to programming cause I cant and wont tolerate people talking mambojumbo to me and playing experts with half my experience...
I do not intent to get involved in gaming and engines...all I need is to be able to create servers that listen from clients and nice web gui and read/write data to sql db.
I've read everywhere that python is an easy start up language, yet I would like to also know pros opinion on my plans
thank you for your time!
PS if you can suggest a nice place to start studying (eg free websites or paid courses) I would appreciate it.
