books if you are really a beginner, start with "head first programming" (which is python), after this go forward with "head first javascript" (if you like the head first approach). do all tasks. after this choose your language, read the best books on that topic (go to amazon) front to cover - while coding lots of really tiny projects (one after the other). try to create one simple script per day. publish them on github. two to three years later you will be a "programmer", you will probably be able to get a job in this area much sooner.
