There are several resources you could look into.

First, learn to code in Python:

https://www.learnpython.org/

They also have links to learn other languages such as Go, C++, and Ruby.

There's another resource to learn C++, that is not affiliated with the
above:

https://www.learncpp.com/

HumbleBundle currently has a bundle that might interest you:

https://www.humblebundle.com/software/intro-to-code-bundle

No Starch Press has a huge library of books, both in print and in
DRM-free formats:

https://nostarch.com/

And of course, there are endless amounts of books on Amazon, B&N, your
local library.


Learning to code is more than just learning a language however. You need
to be able to think logically, as in classical philosophical logic, and
you need to have a firm grasp of logical operators.

Hope this helps you get started.
