What's the best way for someone with no coding knowledge to learn? I've seen lots of sites that use games and stuff, but I'm just wondering what the most affective is if I want to learn in my spare time.
Thanks for any and all help, /g/

You learn to code the same way you learn to play a sport. By actually trying to do it.
A good place to start with is HTML.

And don't forget to have fun.

I use both codecademy and w3schools. The first one has an actual practical tasks while the other one is pretty much same as reading a book or a huge manual.

What kind of stuff do you want to build? How much time can you invest weekly?

Web-dev and maybe some basic mobile applications in future. I can spend 12hrs a day for the next 60 days.
Stop using code as a verb

Just start with C programming language. If you want to buy a book you are free to do so but K&R is not good for newbies.

Is PHP fine with you?
Not the retard wordpress/drupal kind of PHP. Rather barebone projects built upon existing frameworks.
Also - what's your timezone?

Ye, it sounds fine to me. I've also started learning some js basics a few days ago.
My tz is UTC+2.
