ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

Whats next? Should I goto another language? Should I pick up another book? Can anybody make any reccomendations? Or any websites with good tutorials ?
Also... I have been looking online at resources... and it seems that there are a lot more resources and such for c++... should I learn c++? I heard that c teaches you bad habits....
Done with C in 21 days? You must have created an interesting program then.
Good for you, and honnestly, congratulations.
Next, I suggest you have a look at Java, perl, and bash scripting (all very different, and for different purposes).
Of interest too but less widely used: prolog and scheme (or lisp). And of course, there's XML, XSL, DOM, all the W3C stuff.
But if you're fed up with theory, and want more practice, the best thing to do is to help with the many projects, that are in need of good programers. Take a look at sourceforge.net for example, and pick a project that is attracting to you.
it all depends on what you want to do. if you look hard enough, you can find enough resources for pretty much any language. you could look into something like Advanced Linux Programming ( which is free), check out http://www.mindview.net for Bruce Eckel's books ( the C++ ones are really good IMO, also free ( the solutions to the book will set you back $13, but they are worth it)), maybe look into python and see if that's something you are interested in, all depends on what you want.
