      So I was thinking of learning something new, I'm always amazed with the programmers who do programming
      I want to learn on how to write a program.
      Can you please suggest me if where do i need to start?

      Warning: If you ask me about " what language i want to learn?
      and my answer is i "don't really know"
      I'm not really planning to become a programmer, I just want to use my free time to learn something new.

          This is a great place to start. Definitely go there and start with Python.

            Some apps to check out include Atom from GitHub and Notepad++. Both can be installed via Chocolatey.

              Code Academy or Treehouse https://teamtreehouse.com/ is another good one. I've used this one and its easy to learn from. Code Academy I believe is free (signed up just haven't used). Treehouse is about $25/month

                        Python is a great place to start. Lots of good learning resources for it. And easy to use nearly anywhere.
