Must we know a good amount of  math to be good at coding?  I did code Academy for a time but I got bored and slightly scared off when I found out I need math to be a programmer.
waha just GOLD man! keep it up


https://www.google.com - this is like a fukin gift of the gods, learnin so much searchin so much so much stuff everywhere just everything you need omg

http://www.cplusplus.com - My all-time favorite. Tutorials = 10/10 | Glossary/References = 999/10 | Articles = mostly useful | Forum = like a cheap version of stackoverflow, but still helpful sometimes
 
https://msdn.microsoft.com - Although not 100% reliable, still the best source of information when it comes to winAPI, afaik. Fits the most basic needs when struggling with windows headers (like the usual "WTF was parameter #7451 of this ridiculous function expecting again?!")
 
hackforums dot net - Yeah nail me on the cross, but one or two, maybe three decent tuts or source codes can actually be found there. But make sure to ignore the rest of its content (99%) and to NEVER download or buy anything from this site

http://www.highscore.de - Only for our german fellas, this page could help me where others failed, sometimes. And the boost-c++ section is very worth mentioning, imho

https://leakforums.org - Provides some interesting source codes for research and improving your own skills

....
there are plenty of others I just don't remember right now. Maybe I'll update the list later on

EDIT:
http://aluigi.altervista.org/ - Legendary. Back in the days when I was skiddin around and felt leet by crashing quake servers with infoboom, this guy was a god to me- and he actually is HQ as fuck. His page provides tons of professionally written Proof-of-Concepts that cover a wide range of topics (not only online games) and each one is completely open source. This treasure chest is certainly worth a look!

Where the hell are you coming from?

No where from import. Just asking a question.
Have you ever seen a random tree with the most beautifully colored leaves, swaying in the sun and said "I need to touch it and gaze at it"? 

No? I hope you will. It's a beautiful thing.

I agree with CodeCademy, I've learnt Python, my first language, here and I found these tutorials very helpful to start with programming.
Being a good starting point, this will still not teach you enough to actually do interesting things,
what I did was just code and ask questions on StackOverflow, search what certain libraries can do etc.
You may have seen me once, but you'll never forget who I am, even though I'm nobody.
