Re: Guides & resources
A bunch of Lectures from Stanford about a ton of stuff for free on Youtube:

There are other Computer related classes on there, but mostly practical for toward robotics.

Yeah there's some from UC Berkeley on iTunes U as well (You can, well should, be able to download those for free on iTunes U)...
I must say, I throughly enjoyed the Programming Methodology from Stanford... I thought the guy was kind of funny

Re: Guides & resources
I've been getting into python recently, so I'm going to add some resources I found to be particularly helpful.
Learn Python The Hard Way
Definitely for newcomers to programming in general. Goes over a lot in a reasonable amount of detail.
http://learnpythonthehardway.org/book/
Official Python 2.7.2 Tutorial
Being the official guide to the python 2.7 language, this is definitely necessary.
http://docs.python.org/tutorial/index.html

Re: Guides & resources
I find cplusplus.com a great website to help with learning C++. I use it all the time, it has professional looking tutorials on everything C++, a help forum, articles, and complete documentation for C++. On pretty much any of the standard libraries. Just use the search feature for basically anything you need, most problems have been covered in the forum.

I've found cppreference.com to be a good alternative to cplusplus.com, which is starting to feel a bit dated.Aspirer wrote:I find cplusplus.com a great website to help with learning C++.

It's very thorough and up to date.
It's wiki based, so errors tend to be fixed quickly.
I've found it to be the best C++11 STL reference; other references have been slow to incorporate the new changes.
The more technical coverage of the STL can be nice depending on what you're doing.
You can download a copy for offline viewing; very nice for programming on long flights, etc.

There's also a nice article on writing Linux device drivers here: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/art ... vers_linux
