Code is written in what we called “languages”, and learning these languages is very similar to learning a spoken language. Each language has its own quirks and unique characteristics that lead to being well suited for specific use cases. Learning to code can be difficult at first if you choose the wrong language, so it’s important to start off on the right foot! Even that decision, though, can take a lot of time and effort if you’re starting from scratch.

Whether you know exactly what your goal is or if you just want to try out coding, there’s a language for you. Taking this quiz will help set you on the right path to learning how to code! After taking this quiz, feel free to do a bit of research about where you can best learn that language. If you’re looking for a free learning resource, App Academy has recently released its entire curiculum online for free! That curriculum covers Javascript, Ruby, React/Redux, Rails, SQL, and HTML/CSS.
