Hello, I'm Zach, 16 years old.
I recently decided that I need to start learning how to code. But I'm kinda stuck on where to start. I've did a few lessons on Codeacademy but I'm not sure if I'm learning correctly. Any sites you recommend or anything?

Then start with something basic, slowly working to something more advance, then go to a lightweight framework (CodeIgniter or Zend), and then a full stack framework (Laravel or FuelPHP)

Start with HTML to get used to it first then choose where you want to go from there, I personally went straight to PHP & MySQL since I hate doing CSS.

I would recommend you to learn HTML and CSS before you start with PHP, since it would be rather difficult for you to work with PHP without any knowledge about at least two of the basic coding languages.

And if you want to develop servers, start with C, C# and/or Java.

Wait so, PHP firstly, then the next link, followed by the next?
HTML is the easiest, learn PHP after that if you're wanting to move to server sided scripting or if you're more interested in building programs and software rather than web applications then look at something like C, Java, Ruby, Python.

Well, I'm sort of a Habbotard, atm. But when I head into college, I wanna figure out more of what I should do?

You should really ask yourself this simple question: what do I want to do?

Instead of just learning randomly unnecessary things, you could just only learn what you need to know.

You wrote a . (dot) instead of a > at the last input :p
Keep practising!
