I appreciate the response! Was there any structured curriculum you used for learning the fundamentals? As someone who isn’t in a CS program, I was wondering where a good place to start would be

No problem! With C, I started with the K&R book. This provided a great foundation for C and some fundamental CS concepts. I am unsure of the best way to obtain a more structured curriculum outside of college, as that is how I received mine. There are many YouTube video courses to choose from if that is the type of content you learn best from. And many for CS fundamentals. I would also highly recommend a combination of project-based learning with theory, as that will accelerate your understanding quite a bit. You could try looking for a programming buddy on Reddit on r/programming, too! Having someone at a similar skill level to you will make learning easier as you both share knowledge.
