For those interested in learning to code, I'd like to ask that learning a language for the sake of it may not work for everyone.
Try to think what do you want to do and then choose your tool. Do you want to do web, games, mobile apps, sys-admin, hardware stuff, etc.

Also, keep in mind that courses usually cover the syntax and part of the standard APIs. But to be proficient you need to learn about frameworks, IDE's, extra libraries, ...So, a course is just the beginning :)

Cool advice, Thanks Naugrim. Wish this forum had a "thumb's up" or "plus 1" so I can click on it. :)

Maybe if we're talking about scrawl's health, it should be under a pen name, rather than 'DestinedToDie'. :o

Just out of curiosity, can OpenMW be coded with C#? Was watching some beginners tutorials to remind myself what I was taught in the first year of college long time ago.

Only if you switch the entire code-base over to C# like what was done from going D to C++.

The easiest route is to learn C++ in order to contribute.

There are ways to invoke C# code in C++:

But does OpenMW really need that extra level of complication?
