All the resources listed below are free to anyone interested. I will be adding to the list as and when I come across a new resourse. If you have something interesting to share, please do so. Please do not put unnecessary comments and only add if you have something to share. Hope this thread will be useful to everyone.

o Perl 5 by Example

2. Python

o Dive Into Python

o A Byte of Python

o How to Think Like a Computer Scientist - Learning with Python

3. C

o The C Book

o An Introduction to GCC

o C Programming Tutorial

wasn't there already an age old similar list in which many of us added entries ? how about one of the mods merging this thread with the older one and making it a sticky ? My orevious demands for a sticky were all turned down, just so you may know.

legolas · 17-05-2008, 06:12 AM

May be it would happen if you could point out the earlier links??
Also, another issue is that, if that post contained lots of links, then it would also become necessary to check if they are alive still??
May be you should PM some mods, in case you are particular.

I have already PM-ed one mod (hitman) to make this a sticky. But I have not heard from him back. I guess he does not care to reply me, as I do not have big reputations here. In any case, I will continue updating this thread.

Gautam, can you please point me the thread you are talking about. I can take the task of checking the links and add those which are already alive.

The List's great!

I am a C learner and was wondering that are there any sites which host open source codes for reference??
