I am new to android programming and can't find a course in treehouse to get me started.

I see courses here and there under the Android library. But can't find a progressive course. there is no class to tell me how to set up android studio. the "build a simple android class" starts half way the app has been built.

Are you starting at the beginning?

This link:

https://teamtreehouse.com/library/build-a-simple-android-app/getting-started-with-android-2/introducing-android-and-java

Is the very beginning of the "Build a Simple Android App", and it actually does teach you how to make the app from scratch; in fact, setting up Android Studio is in that module too, at the video:

thanks for the links. they are exactly what i need. but i can't find entrance to those pages at the Library or Tracks page.

If you click on the track "Android Development", "Build a Simple Android App", then "Resume" or "Start Course" depending on if you've started it yet, then you should be able to follow along with the whole track. That said, if you haven't already in the Tracks section, you can click on "Switch" for the "Android Development" track so that you will officially be on that track.
