Non-Technical trying to gain mathematical foundation for programming; tips?

Hey guys,

I've always been a non-technical guy, but am looking to move towards a more programming oriented role. I'm interested in getting in to more "deep" programming then the "fluffy" stuff.

I feel like I should get a good foundation in math before I delve in to these problems. Can anyone recommend books or resources to learn the types of math I would encounter in programming? I've looked through Khan Academy, but want more.

If this helps, I took AP math classes in High School, but did relatively poorly due to lack of effort. I'm not a genius, but I can get stuff if I put my mind to it.
