Ive been looking around in a lot of places and still cannot find any code for collsision detection. I have a pong game, i want the ball to bounce off the paddle, can someone please point me in the right direction???

Are we talking 2D or 3D pong?

Just a heads up, most people don't really like it when some one cross-posts Click Here.

But as for your question:
Place 1
Place 2

Place 2 deals with sphere and plane collision, which is pretty much what your talking about when you have a ping pong ball and a paddle (if its 3D, if its not, then collision detection is even simpler)
