I keep records of what people say when i think it's important  here are what i have on sources for coding
Avgar recommends this.
http://learnxinyminutes.com/
However he might have recommended this one actually
http://stackoverflow.com/a/145179 which is about html or something.

Then search on youtube i got the second one from MrTrashTag
HolyWiredMod
Omnifarous Education

Coded Blue is also good but if you're interested in Glua the wiki Page is always good.

I also recommend https://www.sololearn.com/ . It questions you after learning something so that it actually sticks into ur head and u understand it.

Personally I think that the best way of learning a coding language is to get stuck in.
Basically, I would recommend setting up a dedicated server first (https://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Hosting_A_Dedicated_Server).
Then, use the gmod wiki to find methods/functions and create small projects. For starters, save code into a .lua file in lua/autorun/server then test away.

If you start with smaller projects, then think of a bigger one you would like to focus your attention on, you will learn GLua very quickly. Generally I wouldn't advise the sites like sololearn and codeacademy as I feel like: a) it is quicker to learn with practical experience and b) you have a better understanding about how sh*t works (or doesn't Tounge) with practical experience.
