where to start?
Yeah the D programming language, https://dlang.org/ one of my favorite languages to program in. It's unfortunately not used a lot in bioinformatics, and deserves more attention in my opinion. E.g. sambamba for working with sam/bam files is written in it (https://github.com/biod/sambamba) it's one of the most performant tools for working with NGS data because it uses async io and fibers.

Note, the R website has lots of manuals/introduction documentation and there’s also the swirl package to supplement / replace some of the options above.

Would love your college course PowerPoints on how to use R Studio
My colleagues recommend installing a package called "swirl" and working through their tutorials. https://swirlstats.com/ I don't personally know a whole lot about it, but I have heard good things.
