What advice I would give to

new programmers or those who want to study programming.

First of all, why do you want to learn programming and what parts are you interested in?

I would say it's the first thing to think about because that's going to affect a little bit

which resources you get and stuff like that.

So if you want to learn game programming, you might want to learn C++ or C sharp because that's used by the two major engines out there.

Then I would start with the basics, learning like the basics of the language, like what's a variable, what's a for loop,

I will start with just the basics and do some exercises on that.

And when doing the exercises, don't just follow the tutorial, but play around a little bit with them and see what you can do with it.

And I think it's important

to choose good projects to start.

and not go too difficult.

Like if you're just starting to learn programming, maybe a console program to do Rock, Paper, Scissor is a good first start.

And then move on to like Tic-Tac-Toe.

And then if you want to learn some more game programming and a little bit of math going into games, I would do something like Space Invaders or Asteroids, like those kinds of games.
