New Programmer - Where to start??

[Radford26]

Hi, I am new to programming currently learning Python and using Gamemaker studio.

I want to create a program for the World Cup that will be for a sweepstake.

I would like it to have a database of teams that can be allocated to people, the ability to virtually draw these teams out of a hat, the ability to eliminate teams as it goes on and some basic animation. Where the hell should I start???

48 Teams this year I believe

So I can create a button that will pick a team from the dictionary but I am unsure how to get it to take out the team so it does not come up again. Also I will be assigning each team a flag so would this simply be a case of copying and pasting the code and assigning each team a jpeg from a folder? As you can probably tell I am very new to this!
