I'm eager to start my programming journey, but I'm torn between learning the fundamentals first or diving right into a specific language like Python. What would be the best approach to take?

Ideally, you should try to learn both at the same time! From my experience, if you only focus on fundamentals without writing any code, it can be tough to understand those concepts. However, if you only learn Python syntax, you might struggle when things get complicated. It's essential to learn how to think like a programmer and understand the 'why' behind the code you write, not just copy it without knowing what it means.
Thanks a lot! I'm definitely going to try learning both!
