I've been working through the Stanford course notes on Programming Abstractions. http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs106b/ http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs106b/ Click on the link to the course reader PDF I recommend it because it illustrates important concepts in Computer Science while avoiding the unnecessary idiosyncrasies of C++.
