If you aspire to be a developer then you need to learn how to use the available tools to do your own research. Google found http://www.python.org/ very quickly for me.

You learn how to program pretty much the same way you learn to do just about anything else. You can either learn on your own or have an experienced person teach you a few things. Availability of a mentor will help you a lot.

You have "Python" tagged. This is a reasonable language to start with. There are a number of reasonable books that will teach you Python.

An indispensable resource that you should learn to use is Google. If you have a problem/question about something (including the question you asked here), Google skills will help you more than just about anything else.

I think the best way is to take a book on "C language" (for example "The C Programming Language, second edition, by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie") and start learning, make examples from the book... Only after you've learned the basics of a procedural programming language, you can switch to OOP....
OOP (Object-oriented programming) is a programming paradigm that represents concepts as "objects" that have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and associated procedures known as methods. Objects, which are usually instances of classes, are used to interact with one another to design applications and computer programs.

Object-oriented programming languages is :
* C#
* Java
* C++
* Objective-C

Good luck.
