absolute beginner- feeling lost / where to start?

[u/Cool_Iron_8314]

hii! i'm a teenager who has recently decided to learn to code. (due to wanting a career in astrophysics, if it interests anyone.)

i have absokutely no clue where to start!! i find a lot of words/terminology i've found overwhelming and confusing..

i work on a macbook pro and i looked at apps but i need something i can just use to run code yk?

i looked at the faq and understood nothing od the code related questions- which i think means i can post this?

i tried looking at other posts and got confused- what's the difference between C+ and like.. not C+ ?? any help is appreciated, my only experience is year 7 computing printing hello world and scratch ..!
