You're welcome. I want to leave you with one parting comment:

I first started programming when I was nine years old, in the mid-1970s.
We used TTYs with a timeshared HP1000 and BASIC. Given modern computers
and editors I think that any programming language that isn't excessively
baroque will do fine for young people. They can always unlearn bad
habits later.
