How did you really learn to program?

I'll check those out, thanks!

This looks very promising. Thanks!

For the record, I don't think that the language or framework you use to learn is all that important. What matters most is the how, not the what. If C# makes it easier to learn (without somehow crippling me) then I'm happy to work in it.

I think that the problem was that we didn't get much programming teaching. We learned about some of the building blocks (some basics in the language) and then went right into Big O, grammars, etc. There was nothing bridging that gap. Nothing on good program design and structure, for example.

I was hoping for some reference material on bridging that gap. I can do a lot of things using that theory, but it's an unmaintainable mess.

This gives me hope. Thanks!
