What language and what field?

hey if you're not going to help, I guess I will.

OP, welcome to the dark side >:) lol I'm just kidding :) coding is a lot of fun and can be a source of good in the world :D

The first thing you'll want to do is learn about the contributor covenant - it's a really great first step toward understanding and interacting with other programmers from different backgrounds than yourself. You can read one version of it here: http://contributor-covenant.org/

but you should look for the corresponding codes of conduct for projects that don't use the contributor covenant, and advocate that existing projects adopt one if they don't have one yet - it's usually a simple oversight, and fixing this will encourage people from marginalized communities (like the lgbtqqip2saa) to participate where they might have felt disenfranchised before :)

If you have any questions, feel free to ask! We're all here to help.

For really basic stuff, Khan Academy has some good JavaScript as well as general CS stuff

LISP isn't a great language, but that's an amazing book.
Always the best starting point.

Have you tried youtube? Once you get start you won't really need it anymore.

Read HtDP. It's the best self-learner programming book. There's a course based around it on coursera or something I think too, but just the book is fine.

k&r isn't for beginners, especially for someone that has no idea of programming.
