what are you coming for
so I just recently followed Joseph Armand the number 1 coder this Month and I was wanting to know what you all and he wants to learn coding for is it to make money, make algorithms, make games,etc. I want to know how to make my own engine and game so that's my reason.

There is no real point in learning how to create your own engine unless you are really into that kind of thing. If you really want to make games then its better to just start off doing that. As far as programming games is concerned in most cases it really simplistic and you should probably focus on story boarding, mechanics and artistic expression. The emotions you evoke with art, music and story is extremely important in narrative games. Where as logical games tend to rely on mechanics and music.
You should probably look up extra credit on YouTube they have a lot of good videos on this topic.
Engines on the other hand is lots of fun and you can probably make something that runs a specific game better than the proprietary engines but then you will have to look at your apis. SDL for input, sound and output. Direct x, open gl, or vulkan for graphics rendering. Then you'll have to learn shader language so that you can actually tell your graphics card how the data needs to be translated to pixels.
Then you can work on your world model portion and thats just the code keeping track of the world state and updating it. Which would most likely need an binding language so you can easily program the game without rebuilding the engine.
Thats just if you want to do it the proper way. You can always cheat. :P

Ive been into hacking for a pretty long time, until I kinda got caught with some things (dont really wanna talk about it, it were bad times) and I got the punishments I deserved, and since then, Id like to create, and not destroy with codes, thats how I came here
*edit01* and yes, experienced and proffessional programmers can have over $3000 per month, but I just want to have it know just for the knowledge and nice tips it have, and I can now make it a tool for i.e. math problems
