Question to programmers

Is programming like mathematics where there is only "one answer"?
If so what are some good websites you can recommend for a newbie programmer?

I want to get a good head-start before I start college.

I think I will need java, vbasic and c or c++ info...

C++ is like your mom, she will yell at you for not doing things the way you're supposed to and forgetting to say "please", but she does it for your own good. 

If she didn't nag at you in the beginning that you didn't declare that variable that you mistyped and assumed you wanted a new variable initialized to zero, thus ruining your increment logic, you would spend 5 hours running through the debugger until you finally found your typo.
