Book Description

For all readers interested in the basics of computer science. This book teaches you how to read and write mathematical proofs. It provides a survey of basic mathematical objects, notation, and techniques which will be useful in later computer science courses. And, finally, it gives a brief introduction to some key topics in theoretical computer science: algorithm analysis and complexity, automata theory, and computability.

• A Data-Centric Introduction to Computing (Kathi Fisler, et al)

  This book is an introduction to computer science. It will teach you to program, and do so in ways that are of practical value and importance. It uses a data-centric approach: data centric = data science + data structures.

• Principles of Algorithmic Problem Solving (Johan Sannemo)

  The algorithmic approach to solving problems in computer technology is an essential tool. This book presents a readable, entertaining, and energetic book that will motivate and challenge students to open their minds to the algorithmic nature of problem solving.

• Basic Computer Architecture (Smruti R. Sarangi)

  This book is a comprehensive text on basic, undergraduate-level computer architecture. It includes the combinational units, ALUs, processor, basic 5-stage pipeline, and a microcode-based design.

• Introduction to Compilers and Language Design (Douglas Thain)

  This book offers a one semester introduction into compiler construction, enabling the reader to build a simple compiler that accepts a C-like language and translates it into working X86 or ARM assembly language.
