I'm starting CS in fall and I wanna get my math up to date.
What should I study?
Currently I'm going through pic related, good textbook. After that probably a Calculus book but where should I go after?

>but where should I go after
A Discrete Math textbook.

Have you ever studied calculus before? If not, it will take much longer than the summer to go through.

I recommend going through an intro to proofs book as it's the cheat code that makes all later math easier.

Why CS?

Because OP wants to make mad cash and retire at 30, not work as a wage slave until 72 like an engineer.

OP: Get your math "up to date"? Didn't you already take precalc and calculus in high school?

you can make 100k a year being worked like and treated like a dog and constantly dealing with angry customers over issues arising from incomplete/inaccurate specifications or you can make 75k a year doing relatively simple work with plenty of vacation days a little if any moving around for work. Think carefully OP.

I see what you did there.

what job is this?

>>322121

You can get a code monkey job with any STEM degree.

True, but why study some other subject if coding is your end goal? (By the way, I was being ironic about the retire by 30 part.)

Because you're interested in it and want to learn it. College isn't and will never be job training.
