Where do I start to learn coding?

I have to agree with coldexe here, a couple of years ago i began to learn python which at the time was not related to my work, 2 years on and im still terrible at it but i have programs running which save me time and help my business so not really making money out of them but it definitely has improved my work and time management.
I now look at how it can help me with any task I have to do and Im far from proficient. Once the basics are in your head you can pretty much work out the more complicated things with time and persistence (maybe a few SO posts too) :) Good luck. You also build confidence to look at other languages without such bewilderment.

Def not Java. Def not VB. Java is too cumbersome. VB syntax is too loose. If thinking about VB, learn a scripting language instead. If thinking about Java, learn anything else, lol. Learn Java reverse engineering it.

books by the orielly press are the best by far. you can buy used ones cheap on amazon, or if you live next to a library, usually they are in the computer section. the way i learned was to go to the library every day with a notebook and go through every single page of the book and take notes. and i mean read every single page not just skim through.
 
I don't code but I do reddit a lot.

You can do reddit and look for the subreddit: learnprogramming and post your following questions in the search bar.

You can also just do the reddit search for any type of question you have (using keywords) which will help you to get to your answer.
 
If you learn one programming language the next one becomes easier to learn.

The hardest part is learning the logic behind programming and the rest is just syntax.
 
Microsoft academy has some nice free courses on all web related coding
search for "microsoft html training beginners"
 
I would advice you to learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript and SQL or MongoDB only, with this 4 you have enought to make complete websites (NodeJS on the backend), mobile apps or even desktop apps (NodeWebkit)
 
Search on YT, Derak Banas for Android and Java tutorials, PHP Academy for PHP, Bucky for Java.
Plus there is a trick to get any udemy tutorial for free, PM me if you need to know.
 
Whatever you do, dont bury your head into any one LANGUAGE or FRAMEWORK. Learn basic computer science skills and programming fundamentals and then soon after learning any kind of language will become much more approachable.

I agree with this, I am a big fan of diving in a language like Java or C the rest is easy after that
 
Your best choice will be w3school to get started :)
 
I suggest you study about web development. (which can help on you IM business). Start with HTML and CSS. html will provide the structure for your website and CSS will provide the design. If you want to add functionalities/interactions to the website then consider learning web programming languages, i strongly suggest PHP.

Personally, i learned and studied those languages at: http://www.w3schools.com/

They provide a really great step by step guide for beginners who are interested in programming.
 
codeacadamy sounds cool. Im going to take a look at that as well.
