If you are looking to learn a new programming language I reckon you go to my past post 
. Ok here I am going to explain some things for beginning programmers. I will be going through several programming languages explaining their properties, for it it essential to you once you start learning.
HTML & CSS Web Fundamentals
With these two languages they are obviously used for making websites. In my opinion these are the easiest languages to understand which is great for beginning programming (These were my first languages). Also you will need to know a bit more than that befor starting. In HTML lines of code contain tags and what tags are are just function that are used in a greater than and less than bracket (<>) and you will always use two of them. One to give the function and one to close it of (<html></html>). If the tag is not closed of the function will apply itself to the rest of the HTML below it. With CSS it is all so simple. The only knowledge you need for it is the properties for designing the HTML.
PHP & MySQL
Many social media sites use these programming languages even this one! These are used for keeping data stored and moving it back and forth so you don't have to do the code (Kinda like when you make a post). With PHP you can make forums like this one with a data base through microsoft excel or any spreadsheet program. In PHP you do need to know HTML, because in a PHP doc you will mostly use HTML and link in PHP with it same with MySQL.
C Programming
If you are starting with C, well you are up with a little bit of a challenge. C is a compiled language which mean you will need a compiler or you could use Xcode on Mac. You will need to know what a library is as well. A library is a file that contains function for your C program to run and to use those libraries in your code you would write:
#include <library goes in here>
There are many libraries though so that is something to keep in mind. You also will have to know every function of each library you will be using. Other than libraries you will need to know the difference between the C languages (C, C++, Objective-C, C#). C++ is an extension of C making it possible for programmers to have more functions to use. Objective-C is the object oriented to C, it is also used to make apps for iOS. C# is just i would say a different way of righting C, and is aligned much like HTML.
Java
Java is not that of an easy programming language to learn. It is used to make Java based games (such as Minecraft) and apps (PC apps not for iOS). Java is though easier to read than JavaScript (since JavaSCipt has been highly modified). Java is also use for writing computer programms on any OP which makes this a commonly used an MUST LEARN language.

When learning a new skill, language etc. I like to keep in mind that if someone else can do/learn it, I can too! It might take me longer than some but if I'm interested, I can do anything.
The other thing I like to think is, "How hard can it be? I mean, It's not rocket surgery!"
Never EVER think this. Not even jokingly.
Just keep plodding away at it and don't approach it as a chore. If you think of it as play/fun, you'll do much better. Who cares how many times you have to restart. With time, you'll get there. It's not like you've got a deadline by which it has to be learned.
The only exception to the above is if you've got a problem like brain damage that prevents you from learning but I very much doubt you do.
Good luck khaoz - you'll get there. If I can learn it, you can. I'm nothing special. I just have an unquenchable thirst for learning things including programming languages.
