How to learn physics yourself?

Subject.
In the best tradition of the old question: How to learn mathematics yourself?
Hello. The fact is that at school I, one might say, skipped physics. Now I want to go to study as a programmer. So, tell me some textbooks (preferably one thick one) so that after learning I have enough knowledge ... For example, I wanted to read a book on quantum physics, but I don’t understand these physical formulas.
UPD 1: Physics, for me personally, is needed to enter the Faculty of Exact Sciences of the IT University and come out as a smart Computer Scientist

Khan Academy https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics
The Feynman Lectures on Physics en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Feynman_Lectures_on_Physics (the network has some original videos of these lectures and translation of textbooks into Russian)
Roger Penrose (Hocking's friend: )) "The Road to Reality: A Complete Guide to the Laws of the Universe".
The book starts with the very basics like fractions, geometry, the validity of mathematical methods of proof, etc., ending with string theory. Very cool and thick book

Look for lectures by Professor Walter Lewin - there are recordings of his lectures at MIT on YouTube. There was also a course on edX. genius teacher

hmm ....
where are you ...
why do everyone always start doing it when it's already late ....
but aren't you too late, my friend?
in order to become a successful IT specialist, in order not to drop out of the university, in order to really and significantly study at the university and finish it, study right now: physics, mathematics, English, computer science.
in physics - read Landsberg, a textbook in three volumes, and problem books, for example, Goldfarb. know how to solve problems. but physics is not enough. study all natural sciences and disciplines.
but if you have no interest in these sciences, is it worth it to torture yourself with computer science?

School textbooks in physics to help.
Why do you need physics if you decide to become a programmer? In most areas of programming, it is not needed.

If for a general understanding, then I recommend the books of Kitaygorodsky and Rogers, in my opinion both collections are called "physics for everyone."
