The bases you want to touch on to have a solid CS foundation would be:
>Learn programing & data structures (If
Hard to recommend books for this. Don't
e before you have a solid grasp of one,
the plague and don't listen to retards

you don't know it already)

start learning too many languages at onc
say C++. Whatever you do avoid Java like
that say C++ is too hard.
