I am a novice trying to understand selling and buying of crypto currency. I could not find it on google so asking, please do not be harsh.
Say, I have an account with coinbase and want to buy bitcoins or other cryptocurrency, how does/where from an exchange gets those coin to sell to me? and If I want to sell my coins whom does the exchange sell it to.
Is there an article on how this trade work on the internet?

No worries, we all start out here.

They already have a good stock of Bitcoins ready to sell you.
and If I want to sell my coins whom does the exchange sell it to.
It is different for some exchanges. Some will buy them directly from you to get stock of them, and others will put them up for other users to buy, and the exchange will act as a middleman.
Is there an article on how this trade work on the internet?
Yes, a simple search should provide you with many resources.
Hope this helped!
The very, very first coins are minted and created through the process of mining. Then it's a series of transactions that move them around.
There are TONS of articles and books out there. You probably want to research a little before asking here.
