Hello everyone. As all of you may know, there are a lot of modders, coders, and video game creators.
I want to know where you got started, how long you've been making apps or coding of any sort, and where I (a very very noobie noob) can get started.
I want to create apps for Android or iOS (especially games or productivity applications) and be able to know the language fluently. Such as fixing bugs, point out the lines of code that is written, etc.
Books, video tutorials can all work for me. Money isn't really much of an issue. I really need help and I want to learn how to code very efficiently and fast.
Thanks,
TofuTown

Yeah I'd like to know too Tofu make me a new banner
Android: Java, JavaScript, Python, Etc.,
iOS: Swift, Objective C.
I'd recommend starting with Python. It's easy to learn and powerful, and arguably one of the most popular languages >right now<.
I've been learning it for about 5 months, and it's full inclusively and easy to use. There is many useful built in libraries and excellent external libraries you can use come the need.
For modding (minecraft), and making apps, learn Java. However, I don't think you can make apps with Java on iOS. Java should work on Android though, and you don't need to pay for a license to host your apps on google play like you have to on the app store.

Where would be a great place to start? Any places where I could learn fast and efficiently? Where did you start?
For Python, check out codecademy. It's free and will give you decent knowledge. If you really want to get into it you can buy some books later on.

For the others, you might need a book, except for JavaScript, which is also on Codecademy.

Codecademy is just a website where they don't teach much of the fundamentals and it's like 'Sprinkles on the cupcake for the final touchings'. I want to get into the roots of everything and be able to learn everything.
I'm also more interested in Java too. Not sure if I should start with Python though. Well are the two languages completely different from each other? Like is it two separate lexicons?

I started with HTML and then moved on to javascript I learned tid bits of javascript on the way though because HTML is intertwined with javascript.
Starting with HTML is good to get you into coding, but is useless for everything except websites. Also I'm pretty sure that Android/IOS apps aren't coded in javascript, so learning javascript would be a waste of time
An easy beginner language would be Java or C++.
I will warn you...I have tried Objective C....and it's damn impossible for me

If you want app dev for smartphones and such. Go for Androids first. Reason being: If you every want to host it on Google Play (App store) It's free. Costs $90 a year on the Apple app store.

That doesn't even help... Could you please at least try to answer the questions I had listed in my first post? Thanks for the help..
