Hi,

I am new to linux distro's can any one help me where can i get materials to learn how to code in linux distro's

Thats a very broad question.

I'd recommend that you Install Linux and USE Linux as your primary OS.

What programming language are you learning/do you know?

Linux has a huge array[] of Development apps, IDEs, Compilers, etc that are easily installed on almost any distro.

Im not big on programming but im trying to learn myself. Started out with basic Bash moving to Python because I heard its a good language to start with but I guess it depends on what you want to do with it....I personally use Cybrary.it and Youtube for videos. Allitebooks.com is great to download any computer book you need, from A+, networking, security, programming and even CEH. Even just Google is great to find some cheat sheets and documents.

I also started out with Ubuntu if that helps

You can find a wealth of material at The Linux Documentation Project. Much of it needs updated, but it's a good starting point. This Wikipedia article might help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compar...ming_languages

Once you settle on a coding language, doing a web search for "[language] tutorials" should turn up a wealth of resources.

Oh, and welcome to LQ.

If you want to start programming, I would try Ruby.

A basic Linux install will include a shell, sed, & awk - a lot can be done with these, & they will teach you a lot more about how to use Linux.

Additionally, C & C++ are traditional compiled languages, whilst Perl & Python are advanced scripting languages.

You will find lots of information about these languages on the internet.

Fatmac has summed it up nicely.
I'd point out that bash is usually the default terminal lang you use to communicate with the system, so I'd definitely start with that ...
See http://www.linuxtopia.org/ for a load of free to read books etc.

If you wish to do some basic coding the Ruby programming language is a great place to start. Ruby comes installed on most Linux distributions by default. Some like python as a programming language- to each their own. You cannot go wrong with either one. I've always found ruby's syntax easier to understand than I do with python. If you are into web programming, both python and ruby have multiple frameworks to use. I am not as familiar with python web application frameworks so I can only recommend looking into python's django. Ruby has ruby on rails as the main framework most people use. I like smaller, more subtle, and less complicated. I tend to pick Ruby's Sinatra, which is a domain specific language for web applications. I also like Ruby's jekyll, which is a static site generator that can be extended with Sinatra.

Here are a few links to check out so you can make your own mind up.

Ruby:

http://rubyonrails.org/

Python:

https://www.djangoproject.com/

EDIT: forgot to add the ruby on rails url

You can search this keyword on Google: how to master linux distro and code pdf

Of course the best thing is to have a clear goal of what you want to do and get a hands-on of what you're interested to and yes read a lot it will help.

BTW, thanks for Cybrary.it link I never knew about it.
