Lua/C++

[Addams]

I have been trying to learn Lua/C++ from scratch and I have been viewing many Google/YouTube/OTLand links about that.
but I feel like I am getting very slightly better maybe because I view many random tutorials/explanations.
So can someone just point me where to exactly learn? Not just random links, just give me the needed ones.
Like 1-2 links for C++ and 1-2 links for LUA but when I have finished reading/understanding them then I am finally completely done and I don't need to keep looking for other stuffs around.
Just post easiest/simplest and the most completed tutorials links please to get it done as fast as possible.
Because I thought I will just be experienced LUA scripter in like a week but I feel it is much more harder or maybe it is the tutorials I am following.
Same thing goes for C++ but not a week OFC.

HackerRank (https://www.hackerrank.com/) helped me a lot and I highly suggest it..

HackerRank Alternatives and Similar Sites / Apps | AlternativeTo

The best HackerRank alternatives are exercism, tutorialspoint and Codewars. Our crowd-sourced lists contains more than 50 apps similar to HackerRank for Online / Web-based, SaaS, Windows, Mac and more.

Theres a few other sites like this but I find this one is pretty good.

Another good way is diving into solo learning projects try to make a game from scratch or a website from scratch.

C++, C#, Java are your main 3 I come across on freelancing websites. Next id say HTML, PHP, NodeJS, Ajax..

A lot of employers like Ruby on your resume too.. some python...

Once you learn 1-2 Languages come easy after you get good at problem solving and algorithm design...

Look into a lot of object oriented programming.. polymorphism.. recursion.. inheritance.....

With most things in life the best course is practice practice practice.. cant expect to be an expert after copy pasting code for a week.

Youtube tutorials still prob one of the best free learning experiences.
Ive met some of the most experienced programmers through my work and they still google things to find an answer on Stackflow or get an answer on Youtube.. no shame in that.

Best of luck

Hackerrank looks so good with these challenges but it is somehow complex would you suggest something easier to start with? and can you post the lua path on hackerrank because I didn't find any tutorials about it there mostly main languages like c++

lua-users wiki: Lua Types Tutorial

lua-users.org

From there you can go to hackerrank into problem solving tutorials you can use lua there and cross reference as you go. They are ranked easy to hard.

How I learned when I started was just making simple scripts... Run a distro if you can and try making a simple quest and go from there sky is the limit.

A lot of great tutorials here on Otland can help you.

If you have $$ to blow there are places you can hire coaches as well if you are trying to expedite things or can take a course.

hope that helped somewhat

Yeah thanks that helped and I thought about taking course but here in Egypt it is not so easy to find a good course about these stuffs and I don't know which online course is the one I need which starts from the beginning.
Anyways thanks for those valuable information and links I will try to use them and if you know any good online courses about LUA or C++ post links here would be great.
also if anyone else viewed the thread and can add some more help would be great.
