1. read books, magazines, forums, etc.
2. read books, magazines, forums, etc.
3. not necessary, but a lot of the programmers I know are really good in math. I've heard that to be a good programmer, math needs to be one of your strong points.

I find online tutoials help.

I particularly like

The microsoft stuff is good, if a little harder to follow.

I would't say you have to be good at maths to enjoy programing as a hobby, I would say basic algebra is pretty esential (understand what is meant by C =5A +B, for instance). After that it depend on what you wan't to do.

If you need help with maths try-

Good luck,

Steve is right....on line material is outstanding these days.

You didn't specify what language you were interested in, but if you go to Google, type in the langauge name followed by the word "tutorial" I'm sure you will get a bunch of useful returns.
