That's a skill I wish I had of learned when younger. You make it seem so simple yet its not. I worked for Infoxchange as a project manager for an app they were developing. I tried learning how to code but there are so many different scripts/languages/codes was too confusing.
It will be interesting to see what coding will be like once quantum computing is a thing.
It is never too late to learn and there are a lot of fantastic tools To learn out there. Have a look at Code Combat to start at the beginning. Use Code Wars to challenge yourself to grow.
