Go to codecademy.com and learn python. It's a great website and python is a good first language.

Pro Tip: don't use flash when taking pictures of your build; use a longer exposure instead. Prop up your camera with something (preferably a tripod) if necessary.

if you use retarded/autistic/etc to mean stupid please gtfo

You can try some codeacademy tutorials, you will learn quite a bit from it.

But don't just do the tutorials, try to understand it too and change some stuff.

 

Also, there is a link in my signature "programming resources", consult that when you need links to info on different languages.

Python is a good first language but I learned it from Learn Python the Hard Way, Stack overflow, Python's official manual, and Google. But while I learned Python 2.7; Python 3 will likely be the version you will be learning in a first year CPSC course, if you take a CPSC course in University. That said converting over from one version to the other isn't that hard and while Python 3 is somewhat more straight forward than Python 2.7; Python 2.7 seems to have better library support. I'd certainly advise starting with Python.

 

Also Khan Academy may have a series of tutorials for Python but I didn't use it so I can't really comment on it.
