Have you already heard of our Lord and Saviour, the Wizard, and the scripture known as The Wizard Book? By the end of it you will be able to write a compiler, be a smith who can forge their own tongs.
(The software to use with the book is nowadays called racket, use #lang sicp to enable the right dialect)
The Rust book is also good at teaching coding, but it would be more of a jump into cold water. It’s still more about teaching coders about Rust, only teaching coding incidentally to pick up people coming from a variety of languages, instead of getting into the core of computation itself.

I mean, I literally learned python and bash by just kind of going for it, so this sounds good.
