You can work along with a book: http://www.diveintopython.net/
Or videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3u1fu6f8Hto
Or enroll yourself in MIT: http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-00sc-introduction-to-computer-science-and-programming-spring-2011/

At a small step, pick a language and start there. Java is used in many universities to frame computer science programs. Or you can start more close to home and use a scripting language like Python. Or even simpler and program using Bash that is built into linux.

Are you a visual learner, if you want to get to the very absolute basic idea of programming, I suggest you look at Scratch. It's a fun way to understand the concepts of programming.

Books are great, bu the best thing you can do, once you get the basics of a language, is to build something. It doesn't really matter what, but the practical experience you get getting something up and running on whatever platform, deciphering error messages, fixing bugs, and generally managing your project is more valuable than hundreds of hours spent reading books or watching videos. Also working on something interesting helps keep you motivated to get you through the inevitable roadblocks you'll hit while learning.

Word to the wise if you go down this path try to specialize in some form of coding and not hop around like I did.
