Some resources I've found helpful to learn some command-line:
- https://cmdchallenge.com/ https://cmdchallenge.com/. This set of increasing-in-difficulty challenges should help with structure in terms of learning a bit more.
- https://explainshell.com/ https://explainshell.com/ can be helpful as well.
- Don't forget the man pages! `man <command>` can be quite helpful! For a different approach on teaching some, bropages.org could be helpful.
- I haven't used it personally, but there is a lot of info at http://www.opsschool.org/ http://www.opsschool.org/
As for learning to program, I suggest a very good starter language is Python, and its built-in, first-party language reference/tutorial I found helpful when I learned it: https://docs.python.org/3.8/tutorial/index.html https://docs.python.org/3.8/tutorial/index.html
As for "what" to program after that, I don't have any great resources for what constitutes some good initial programs. Off the top of my head, here are some ideas about places to start which are doable with only inputting and outputting text:
- FizzBuzz
- Play Rock Paper Scissors with the computer
- Play Tic Tac Toe with the Computer
- Sieve of Eratosthenes
- Conway's Game of Life
- Given a piece of text, count how many occurrences of each word there are and display the top ten.
