I learned programming informally via scientific project work. When I learned about hashing and O(1) lookup the power of it truly blew my mind.



Any specific books or resources you have in mind?


Yes, I learned this and a number of other nice topics in the coursera algorithms courses by Tim Roughgarden, which I highly recommend.
