All recent distros setup the dual partition for you.
 
I dont know
exactly which is better.

Distros differ primarily in the package management
system. Choice of distro is a personal one.

Fedora i found rich set of programming environment

You can use your programming tools with any distro.

I
dont want too much of
games or other features like too many GUIS like.

Install whichever tools/packages you want. You have
the freedom to do what you want.

Googling does not help in this regard
