I would probably recommend javascript then

#

What I would recommend is either to start with harvard's cs50x course if you want a more well rounded foundation for your coding journey, or to just find a javascript tutorial and follow along

I don't know javascript very well, perhaps that's an advantage?
I'd tell someone on a PC to hit F12 to get to a console.
Then I'd have them do:

alert('Hello World');
``` and then when they dismiss the alert I'd get them to try:
```js
let myvariable = 'Hello World 2.0';
alert(myvariable);
``` and then when they dismiss the alert I'd get them to try:
```js
console.log(myvariable+' is '+myvariable.length+' characters long.');
``` followed right after by a big leap:
```js
for(x=0;x<myvariable.length;x++){
  console.log(myvariable[x]);
}``` and then I'd see how much of it was making any sense? LOL
