    CC-licensed, venerable MIT textbook for programming in Scheme. It is an excellent introduction for beginners. As one who hasn't had formal programming education, this also opened my eyes to the benefits of recursion and variable mutation in functional languages. http://mitpress.mit.edu/sicp/

        @derphoove Though I haven't had formal education in programming, I have already programmed for a little less than a decade. :-)
