For externals, you should mainly use C. The book I used to learn C when I was student is more or less considered as C bible. Check a look at it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_C_Programming_Language_(book)

Thank you for that. I was asking more about resources for learning C\C++ languages themselves keeping in mind that "writing DSP externals for pd" is my end goal. Any suggestions?
