Hello all, I'm very new to computer programming and I'm really needing help on where to start. I've worked in the IT field for several years and I'm wanting to narrow my skills down to programming, if that makes sense. I didn't receive an education in computer science and I'm basically self-taught. Should I be taking classes to learn the basics of programming and go from there? I basically just need a push in the right direction. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
