python, java and C languages are all good places to start. There isnt a definitive starting point once you pick up one language its much easier to pick up others.

Python is what I used when I was like 12 and wanted to do it, it's pretty easy to learn & catch on.

There is no "easiest language." However, for a beginner I'd recommend a scripting language; probably JavaScript or Python. Personally, I'd recommend JavaScript. You aren't just going to "learn" a programming language. No one really knows a language. Your goal needs to be, learning the basics of programming; not a programming language in particular -- doing that will likely discourage you at some later point. If you Google, "CS50" you'll come across a free (and popular) Computer Science course, taught at Harvard. It's a great introduction to computer science (which is more than "coding"), and it's done using JavaScript. With recent updates to JavaScript over the years, it's a great language to learn some common features found in every programming language; including newer languages with features added in ES6.

So I figured this would be a good thing to share. Any people interested in dabbling with code should check this out!

Blue J is a essentially a compiler, it is in no way advanced and can do very little... but what i find is that its extremely useful for practising the essentials of code e.g. loops, making code elegant, your presentation and annotation e.g. format and how you write your code, and lastly it has a very good syntax highlighting feature that enables you to locate and find problems a lot easier than in most environments. very good for getting into good habits when writing code. It is not a large file and installation is straight forward easy for those who are wondering. I would recommend this to any people just starting out, but keep in mind it has a lot of limitation in terms of what you can actually make. Try it out for yourself!

Ps. im not promoting the company, my lecturer showed me this and I do find it very helpful
Thanks for reading
