Skiena is great.

My usual learn-a-new-language routine is speed-running the first 25ish Project Euler problems. They cover a lot of three usual language basics.

Skiena posts recent semesters of lectures on Youtube as playlists, as well.

Going through them at 1.25-1.5x speed, a lecture per night or every few days, is extremely helpful.
