list

Hi there! I'm new to programming and I would like to make a list of most important pieces of knowledge of programming and CS that would be useful no matter what specific programming language I would use in the future.

For instance, if I would make this kind of list for Law studies, there would be stuff like Articles of Constitution etc.

Those pieces of information I would put in Anki, and repeat it from time to time.

Speaking in terms of CS and programming I mean on the most useful:

mathematical theorems
algorithms (examples of elegant solutions, comparison of two solutions etc.)
pieces of code
anything else that is vital (and very handy) to have in mind

Do you think that making this kind of knowledge list makes sense?

Looking for the recent and powerful upcoming programming languages over net, I came across Ceylon. I dropped in at ceylon-lang.org and it says: Ceylon is deeply influenced by Java.
