You'll be fine with a new battery. Any codes that are there will be related to the battery and won't be a problem. If you have access to a good scanner, you can go in a clear any codes you may have. You don't have to though.

Unfortunately have no access to a scanner was just going to change my battery but someone was saying you had to reset the computer and it got me a bit worried

the BCM will learn the battery state of charge overnight
i use a memory minder when changing batteries,
just so battery stations and clock are retained
