Learning to Program

[DeadlyGambit]

Now that schools out, i'll have alot more time on my hands and i'd really like to learn how to program. I'm a computer science major, but i haven't taken any core CIS classes yet just general education stuff. Anyway, where should I begin my endeavor? Since I have a little C++ experience I was thinking about starting there. Anyone know of any good books I should pick up? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
