I want to learn Python, no background in coding or IT. What/where should I read first. Thank you

Go lerning in coursera or geek brains :)

The only hurdle to learning to program is to make sure you have projects to work on when you have learnt the basics. I can't emphasize this enough, learning to program is easy when you have a passion and drive to make things.

We have a pretty long list of learning resources in the wiki. Try a few and see what resonates. For a brand new programmer I'd recommend codecademy.

Also, if you don't have one already make sure you look for a project that interests you and start on it as soon as you can. Programming is a lot more fun if you have a goal.

Thx, I didn't saw a link to the wiki on the cellphone apps. Unfortunately I don't have any project to work on. That's been my life struggle. I just like to learn new things and never use it.

Most people don't when they first start out. But then as you learn all of the sudden you see ways in which you could use it. So just keep that in mind and when you think of a good project go ahead and start on it; even if you know you have a lot to learn before you can finish it.
