Re: completely new to programming

If someone starts out looking at and liking Nim, I think advising them to learn 
C is completely wrongheaded. (I say this as someone who spent decades writing C 
code and was on the ANSI C standards committee.) I suggest starting at 
[https://nim-lang.org/documentation.html](https://nim-lang.org/documentation.html),
 and buying _Nim in Action_.
