Code combat, Euler project, and khan academy come to mind. There's lots of programming challenge websites like topcoder or codejam or pythonchallenge or ... etc just google "competitive programming".

Again though, don't focus on learning languages. Programming is a tool used to solve problems, focus on what problem you need solved then find and apply the correct tool. What interesting problems do you have Solax? Learning SQL won't help you write an autoclicker for example.


What is your interest in the area? You focus a lot on languages so I'm guessing you don't into science or engineering :L
