Head over to http://www.w3schools.com/ to get a basic understanding of programming.

On Windows, you'd typically use a GUI, such as Visual Studio.
If you've got an existing project with a makefile under UNIX (Mac or Linux), you'd typically go to the src directory and type:
$ make
Then (sometimes as root):
$ make install
But since most projects have readme files, I'd read that before you do anything else!
To build your own programs in UNIX, you'd use gcc. If you're interested in becoming a developer, don't limit yourself by always using GUIs; start off with a simple text editor in UNIX (eg. Linux or Cygwin) and build on the command line.
When you get a little more advanced, I'd recommend Anjuta.

Building a software is not as easy as making a recipe . You have to follow certain software Engineering principles and u have to design it and analysis the Design and find out what are the languages which are really required in ur Software in order to complete it

If you are a novice, I recommend dowloading the free Visual Basic from Microsoft. It is a good language for a beginner and it has a couple of example programs to get you going. It has extensive help to give you pointers as well. You will find the reference below:

do a web search for "learn c++" since that is the most common language. See if you can find a copy of Microsoft visual studio. It makes development a lot less hassle
