Hi, Do You Know Any Resources To Start Learning Coding, Preferably For Free? Ty!!

I want to make games so which code should i learn?

  I’m unsure if you already have an engine picked out because you asked which language to use and different engines may use different languages so here we go.

  I personally would say you may want to download the Unity engine. Unity is a tool developers use to basically build the world, add items, characters, etc. There are, of course, other engines out there but Unity is one that most people tend to use. Then there’s also Cryengine and Unreal Engine although, these are more advanced and have a wider learning curve. Unity is free to use (there are also features that only paid users are allowed.) and most colleges will instruct their students to use Unity for their learning. If you scroll down far enough, you’ll see the games I made while learning. Although I never finished them, Unity has more than enough power to make good games while learning. Unity supports 3D and 2D game development and I don’t believe Unreal or Cry engine do. (Not positive on that so correct me if I’m wrong everyone..) There are a lot of lower-level engines out there as well such as Love Engine (I hope I’m spelling all of these correctly…).   I’m assuming you want to make the entire game on your own, right? If not then you’ll need a team of friends. If You do plan to develop alone, you’ll need a programming language that the engine supports. I know Unity supports C# and JavaScript. Most would tell you to learn JavaScript first because it’s easier to grasp and I do believe that to be true. Trust me, go JavaScript. I’m unsure of what languages you should study for the other engines but I assume most of them use JavaScript or C#. I’d check for yourself on that.

  I really hope this helps you or someone out there to get started.

  Good luck!

A new neutron star merger is caught on X-ray camera

Two stellar remnants smashed together in a galaxy more than 6 billion light-years away, forming a single monster magnetic star.

In October 2017, astronomers announced the first detection of gravitational waves from the merger of two neutron stars earlier that year. The event also rung in the era of multi-messenger astronomy, as more than 70 telescopes observed the event’s afterglow in optical light, X-rays, gamma rays, and more. Now, an X-ray signal dubbed XT2 from a galaxy 6.6 billion light-years away has revealed another neutron star merger, which left behind a single, heavier neutron star with an incredibly powerful magnetic field: a magnetar.
