Can you help me find a "programming website"?

Hi,

I came across this website a few weeks ago and it would appear that I haven't bookmarked it! It had a lot of information and advice on programming. I remember reading the following sections there:

- which first language and those suggested were python and java, among those I can remember. (there was a big list and little bits of information under each suggestion)
- how to get started at school, preferably not taking CS classes in high school because in general, CS courses there are poorly taught and it's best if one learns on their own
- for college: description of "electrical engineering", "computer science", "computer engineering", "information technology", etc

I'm certain this website will come in handy but I can't seem to find it! I've been looking for the past half hour!

Thanks!

Haha! I would have but I don't have that feature enabled. (more like, it's automatically erased?)
 


I don't know what words to google for to find the site we're talking about, but here's a link to the programming book I suggest to beginners (http://www.htdp.org).
 
Dear Peeps I have posted a few questions about programing on this sectio of the PF forum. I want to ask you veterans how you folks learn program in assembly and about computer architecture for the x86 family. In addition to finish learning C, I am also reading the book From bits to Gates to C and Beyond. In the book, it uses the mini LC3 assembly language. I also have books on assembly programming and computer architecture. The few famous ones i have are Computer Organization and...
I have a quick questions. I am going through a book on C programming on my own. Afterwards, I plan to go through something call data structures and algorithms on my own also in C. I also need to learn C++, Matlab and for personal interest Haskell. For the two topic of data structures and algorithms, I understand there are standard ones across all programming languages. After learning it through C, what would be the biggest issue when trying to implement the same data...
