STOP! ignore these people if you are serious about coding I'm going to walk you through out the steps i took I'm currently in college (sophmore) with a Major in Computer Science.

you can learn to code at www.codeacademy.com

make an account there its free unless you upgrade to pro and get live help from people which is useless really cause this page teaches u step by step and its at your own pace. this site also shows examples and if you mess up the show you your mistakes and make you correct them.

this first language you want to learn is HTML why? because its the most easiest language to learn. and it will test your mind and you to see if your ready for the stressful career you and me pursuit. Coding isn't all fun and games all the time. it can be quite frustrating and stressful. over al i like it though and i love my major but if your really serious about it take my advice and go to codeacademy.com and try it out remember start off with HTML.

Start learning python at http://codeacademy.com

Once you complete the online course, learning other languages will become easier.

Python is a really good language to start off with, cause it's a multi-platform language, it has a coding style that is similar to other big languages, and once you've mastered it, all other languages you learn will look similar.

Although if you're looking to start low, HTML would be a good choice (even though it's a markup language and not a programming one).
