Its been 8 months i been working as a Technical Support Assistant. Long term i am aiming to become a Developer. Startup i am working for does provide huge platform to enhance your programming skills. Since i am new to programming, i am not sure what to do if i am unable to understand a code? What kind of questions are okay to ask your senior developer? Do you have any books or course recommendations?

As a dev I can attest to this, but dev ops is more to learn sooo good luck

There are no off-limits questions for your senior dev. They'll be happy you're asking and trying to learn. Google and Stack Overflow are your friends. I've been writing code for 15 years and I still have to look things up.

If you've never learned anything coding wise, I'd recommend getting a newer coding book in one of the top 3 languages and go through it. You'd learn faster and you won't have to worry about asking the basics

If you already know how to code the basics then you can ask anything tbh at the end of the day it depends on how patient the person you are asking is.
