Beginner here, teaching myself - anything I should know about/consider as a beginner.

I'm just trying to teach myself how to code I don't have a computer and I'm doing it off my phone. Just trying to see if anyone has any advice or idk ANY KNOWLEDGE/INFORMATION that could help me as a rookie learning from his phone. & just because I don't have a comp right now doesn't mean I'm not serious about this! I'm just done "waiting for the right time" . So yeah, ANYTHING is helpful.

Daxton Toland Yes, and like i havee said you have good motivations... Start coding but think that if you want do it good, you have to buy a PC... From my experience i can say that you learn better from errors and on PC you will see with debugging

Your phone is good enough if you want to learn and code small things. But you do need a PC (not necessarily a good one, but the better your PC, the better your experience and more the things you can do) for programming real commercial applications.

KrOW hey man thanks for reaching out. I know being on a phone & trying to do this stuff is not best if you're trying to code, but like I said I just wanted to stop waiting & start learning. I just started my new job full time as a internet comp tech for many different ISP's . Gonna save up & buy

S. C. hey man, thanks for your time here. I've got the Note 8 & a mouse & keyboard setup with it. So it's painful, but just a little less. my goal is to hopefully learn enough that possibly maybe when I get a comp I can hit the ground running

Daxton Toland I dont want break you intention (they are very good) but a PC its really needed on coding OVERALL if you learning... Its not funny write long code on phone (and i know this because i have writed some script/app on device which longest is about 1400 lines) and trust me, write code its not end of game. Often you have to debug, test some concepts, adjust some configurations and more and its not fleasible (often impossible) do on phone. If you want learn very basic do it on your phone, but IF do you want follow SERIOUSLY (i mean more fast, with less problems and with less limits) then buy a PC soon.
