Hey, I absolutely have no idea about coding and I want to learn now so that I can create bots for myself.

What are the things necessary to learn to code and making bots? What should I start with?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe I created the topic in the wrong subforum? Please move it if I put it in the wrong sub forum.
 
You just use Google, YouTube and a whole bunch of other websites to learn.
Find a problem in your space and try to come up with a program/solution for that problem.
 
If you want to create bots and you're not technical, your time will be better invested in buying a tool that creates bots, like ZP or Ubot.
 
If you want to start coding there are great courses on the web. I learnt with codecademy, great to learn the basics
 
If you want to automate many activities and do it quickly, start by learning Python. You will find some interesting courses on youtube and I recommend buying courses on udemy.com. Sometimes they have discounts and you can buy for 10USD.
 
Quoting myself to tired to write it all again....

Copy and paste because I was not able to quote...

I would suggest to learn the basics without any language specific syntax.
- learn data structures and navigation in it: bag, sack, array, list, sorted list, map, dic, hashed map
- learn algorithms like sorting under concern of performance (bubble sort, quicksort, sorting by using balanced tree structures). Classical CRUD operations. Data Access Concepts, recursion
- learn patterns like decorator, factories, ...

If you understand these concepts and a few standard statements (if, while, for, case, method, class,...) you should easily learn and adapt any language with an good or even excellent level.
Developing is Like using any other spoken language (English, French, German). Even if you know the grammar and the vocabulary not everyone is able to say a smart sentence...
 
first search for course that teach fundamentals in progamming...in youtube, udemy and lynda...then choose Python, its the easiest language you can start with...
 
Start with an easy language where you can see fast results without really having to understand what is going on behind (aka thinking more about the architecture than the actual problem).

PHP and/or Python are perfect for that. Both have an easy syntax, are OOP, can be used on windws/linux/mac, have millions of libs and there are an unlimited number of tutorials on YouTube, ebooks, udemy courses etc.

Once you understood basic concepts and can create applications with one of these language, you can move to something different like C# or even C++. With these languages you will get a better understanding what is going on behind the scenes (specially C++) and have more power and control over your application.


And one thing: Don't rush. Take your time. Until you know how to solve a complex problem by writing software, it can take you months to even years.
 
i did it all on youtube. Everybody always has a different way around it. i guess i learnt from almost every channel i came across and i can say i'm pretty good. it's simple man if you put your mind to it.
 
Alright thank you so much for the info :)

I will start to look on these things. ^_^
 
I have referenced w3schools for html and css hints. But youtube videos have been my best resource for learning coding.
 
Agree with @amoon and @SEO-Ghosts, learn python !
This is the most effective way to build bots quickly ...
Follow some courses and start to play with scripts you can find on github

+1 for python as well, it is pretty easy to start with and is mostly used for writing all kind of bots, web scrapping , AI and a lot of interesting things

No need to pay for knowledge when starting, for instance can find nulled courses of udemy or go to youtube and find good tutorials
here is the link of one course: https://www.freetutorials.us/the-modern-python-3-bootcamp/ , you can also find many other courses for free on this website from udemy I've used them a lot and so far no viruses were found from my side.

Python is a lot simpler in a sense that it looks like you are writing pseudo code and honestly it was my first language and I have no regret about learning it first. As it goes you can run python literally on every machine that supports it where as php is a language you would use for back end which means you will have to have a server running or you can use some sort of virtual machine such as wamp/lamp or xampp to run the php code.

Plus php is mostly used within web development as it works on the server side, with many CMS over there such as WordPress running on php it makes php good for that kind of development and it surly could be good skill to know. But OP asked about the bots and honestly I think python is much easier to write your bot. But for starting I will still chose python rather than php specially if you are not thinking about developing some web appliaction/website or some plugins for wordpress etc.
