largely depends on what you would like to mine with. Do you have have GPU's you can play around altcoin mining with? At this point CPU/GPU mining Bitcoin is just about pointless but there may be some alts you can play around with.

What is GPU ? And how to do that ?

GPU = Graphics Proccessing Unit. Basically just a graphics card for your computer. Can purchase Large like an R9 290X or smaller ones like a 750Ti.

At this point, GPU mining is basically for hobby only.... and for those with cheap electricity. I do have some left over GPU's from my earlier mining days that I would be willing to part with for cheap if you are interested.

Some GPU resources below:

The current generation of miners run  with ASIC chips which are much more efficient but at the same time much more costly.

It might be interesting for you to look into cryptonote and try mining with Minergate.
You just have to register an account, download the app and start mining basically.

A couple of days mining with a decent processor and graphics card will get you some bytecoins or other cyptonote coins.
