1Using what service did you attempt to buy the coins? You'll need to set up a wallet of some sort in order to receive/send bitcoins, if bitcoin core is too complicated there are simpler wallets available (such as a mobile wallet on your phone).chytrik 2018-01-27T04:18:57.797

You can download bitcoin-core from here

But it's not highly recommended since you may need to download the whole blockchain.

What I recommended as an alternative is Electrum since you can use public bitcoin servers without downloading the whole blockchain

Is highly recommended if you can run it, it is the reference client but, it requires downloading the entire blockchain.Willtech 2018-07-17T22:01:20.760
