Concrete Mathematics

never heard of this one but I'm a combo guy.

Concrete Math is reeeeeeeeeally good. Pretty much the classic discrete math book for mathematicians.

Generatingfunctionology is a cool next book to read. If you're into graph theory get anything by Bollobas.

If you want to study some "offbeat" combinatorics, check out Combinatorial Designs by Stinson. Best introduction to that field that I've seen.

>a foundation for computer science

Then why does it have mathematics in the title? Is it not a "Learn Python in 20 days" book?

Computer science not code monkeying

>Daily reminder that CS stands for Codemonkey Studies

"Computer Science" is a meme name given by people who didn't want to get bullied by engineers, physicists and mathematicians.

It's kind of a funny title. But you know how most discrete math books are very low level and don't have much theory because they are for freshman CS majors who don't like math, and how CS students who study from those wind up not even being able to write a proof by induction by the time they're a junior?

Concrete math is the exact opposite of that. It actually gives you a theoretical foundation in the mathematics that will be useful in CS, or later on in pure math if you're a combinatorialist.

Nice meme

Any other books that'll make you into a CS god like this one desu senpai?

I just want to learn how to program video games.

Then you will forever be a codemonkey.

Learn linear algebra, analysis and quaternion algebra then

Also focus on optimizing software

The AI in games is silly simple do don't waste time on that
