Basic knowledge and experience programming in C. Have programmed extensively with MATLAB.

I currently teach math at the community college level and bored with the level of math I teach. Considering a career change done the line and what to start learning independently current programming languages and trends. Where do I begin?

Why would a programmer choose one over the other? What about software selection and ease of programming (with already basic knowledge of programming, and wanting to dive in to open source)?

In terms of Linux, what makes things like Red Hat cost money and things like Ubuntu not? Is pay-for OS based on Linux better quality than freely distributed OS? What is the best choice for Linux-or-Unix OS for a budding programmer?
