Where should I start if I want to learn computer programming.?

Im looking to take a course on computer programming but I don’t know where to start.I am on my computer 24/7 so know my way around but I would like to start making some software and applications.What class would I be better off starting for beginners.

Start with visual basic you can download the software from the Microsoft website. If you consider becoming a computer programmer as a career it’s an incredibly hard discipline but don’t be discouraged, after learning visual basic progress to c++ and if you can master that the sky is the limit.
