Hello! I am in the 11th grade , going on 12th basically and I really want to pursue computer engineering. I’m going to study a computer science course in the summer( logic gates, algorithms,loops) and so on. My only problem is I’m going to college in 2027 of October I believe, but I have 0 knowledge about coding of any sort and I don’t want to struggle, I wanna build a foundation at least. How and where should I start? Thanks!

It’s really out of my budget🥹 are YouTube videos any helpful?

CS50 is 100% free

Oh really? I’m so sorry I think I clicked on different programs and I got so many prices lol😭 I assumed it was the course itself . But no way 100% free?

I think the free online version is called "CS50x" if that helps

You can complete the course and get a certificate of completion for no money. There's a paid option if you want to give them some money but you don't have to. Thousands complete the course each year for free.
Be prepared to do work. You will have to "figure it out on your own" some but that is also realistic preparation.
