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.
