I am new to bitcoin and my friend who uses bitcoins told me that it is better for new people to mine other coins what coins are best for new people and what coins are easiest to mine
i agreed if we can get more btc by mined other alt coins, the easiest coins can mined are coins whch has very very little value, like 1 satoshi

Just stick to bitcoin for now. You cannot learn anything just by asking questions in a forum like bitcointalk. The first thing you should learn is that most of the people here are shills or fudders. And most of the coins are only good for trading once or twice and then move on to the other new coin. If longterm investing is what you're looking for, you cannot find one here.

Forget about easiest to mine and go for most profitable to mine. Then sell whatever your mining for bitcoin and hold your bitcoin.
I think right now you want to be mining Ethereum. But don't take my word for it since I haven't used GPUs to mine now for a while.
Since OP has only a laptop to mine with, the most profitable is to actually buy bitcoin.
Most coins he'd try to mine would eat up too much power to get any profit and he has a huge chance to burn his GPU.
So imho, some coins very easy to mine, for which OP could mine just a couple of hours now and then, only to see what's all about, would be the way to go.
I'd advise OP to also keep an eye on Espers. It may be easy to mine too, I didn't try, but from time to time they give out big amount of coins. They don't actually worth much, but you can play with sending / receiving, market and whatever you'd like to learn.

Try MonetaryUNit(MUE)
It's quark you can do with your CPU or GPU and the diff still low. Also you can exchange through Bittrex.

Try the classics, bitcoin, litecoin and dogecoin. Can't go too wrong, all are pretty stable and trusted, and have very decent market capitalizations without all of the risk these more experimental, newer technologies bring.

If you want to mine altcoin I'll recommend a proof of stakes coin no expensive mining rig or equiptment all you need is a wallet of the coin you are mining with a coin on it..Some of the most stable altcoins are cbx,rbies but if you want a start up coin take a look at chesscoin on announcement thread..
in your case, any new coin listed in ANN.
just look for one that seems a good project with some future ahead, it will possible the get a few mining with your laptop and if at some point this coin really worth something you might even have some profit with this.
But remember, mining with a laptop it's not a good idea, you wont get enough hashpower and might even break your computer.

New coins are highly risky. If he is a noob, there is a good risk that he might get sucked into one of the numerous pump-and-dump alts. Better to stick to established alts.

STEEM gives you crypto just for talking or introducing yourself
Yes, the crypto of the future pays you simply for doing what you are already doing (posting threads)

Then you can trade your STEEM for any crypto you want

That is awesome my friend told me about GEMS where they pay you to use the app but he said he never used it and when I looked at the app all the reviews were bad and people said the app either didnt work or they didnt get paid are their any other coins like STEEM
GEMS never gave a million dollars in crypto to people who simply introduced themselves, flashed a nip, or copied a link:

No offense to GEMS, but with the money you can make from one STEEM post, I bet you can buy more GEMS than your friend ever owned.
So there are 2 ways to mine crypto, the easy way, and the hard way.
I wasn't saying they were equal I was just saying that I heard about coins you could get for just using their apps and stuff are there any others the STEEM registration isnt working right now
Dogecoin maybe, if you like not having to deal with decimal amounts and just whole numbers like 1, 10, 100, 1000.
What does best to mine mean ?
And your topic title said nothing of mining.
What are you after ?
Then you can get an appropriate answer..

Just download nicehash miner and start mining. It will automatically decide what is the most profitable coin at the moment.
The best software for newbies.

It might be a nice way to get your hands on some coins to play with, but don't confuse a giveaway with mining. When you get payed some ALT's by making posts or something, you're participating in a giveaway, you'll learn nothing about mining.
*disclaimer => i have never used STEEM or GEMS, so i cannot make any conclusion about them, they might be nice, i would never know.
If you plan on only using your cpu of your laptop then theres no coin thats going to give you any profit, your best bet is to at least gpu mine with a semi decent card. Even then you will be making a low profit but its a good start into mining and learning how to do it. You could mine a few that are worth less atm so mining at a loss but believe will go up in price in the future.

If Ethereum is good what about Uther
If I used something besides my laptop what would be best to start with and how do you find coins that are meant for CPU or GPU or different things how do you tell the difference
AFAIK, all coins should be CPU minable, the thing is, most of the time, the diff would be so high it's nearly impossible to mine a block with the cpu.
Some algorithms are also suitable for GPU mining. I found this thread listing GPU minable coins: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/latest-gpu-only-mineable-coin-list-1349070
That being said: the GPU in your laptop is most likely an onboard GPU, that's not really suitable for GPU mining.
I'm still sticking to my original advise: buy a second hand ASIC on the forum (use escrow!!!), mine bitcoin or a low-diff sha256 altcoin, build some experience
Don't expect to make any profit (not even enough to pay back the ASIC)https://cse.google.com/cse?cx=016660200577587308545%3Aesf40ml9aag&ie=UTF-8&q=wtb+antminer+s3&sa=Google+search#gsc.tab=0&gsc.q=wts%20antminer%20s3&gsc.sort=
S3's used to cost $50-$75, with the halving around the corner, you might pick one up for even less than that...
