Mathematics for Computer Science
This is a comprehensive textbook, covering some fundamental mathematical concepts underlying computer science. It starts with basic proofs, induction, and recursion; it proceeds to infinite sets, number theory, and graph theory. Further, it outlines the practical usage in the area of communication networks, along with some aspects of probability theory involving random variables and random walks. This merge of mathematical theory with computer science applications provides an excellent framework upon which students can base their study of algorithms, data structures, and other computational concepts.

Overview of Computer Science by Phillip Barty Crouch Junior is broad but detailed in most key areas of computer science. It deals with algorithms, the prerequisite for problem-solving and data processing. Data representation and logic form the backbone through which computers understand and execute instructions and are thus discussed. It does also touch on the topics of machine organization and Moore's Law, referring to the exponential growth that has occurred in computing power. It also covers topics in computer security and algorithmic complexity, and software development practices. Python references and examples, with practical problems will enable readers to understand and apply the content by matching theory with hands-on programming.

CS Unplugged is an entertaining way to help learn about the basics of computer science, using snacks, sorting games, and puzzles-none of which require a computer. The PDF covers basic material like data representation, algorithms, and procedures through to advanced and specialized topics such as intractability, cryptography, and human-computer interaction. This is ideal for teachers and students alike who seek knowledge about concepts in computer science using interactives with no digital support; therefore, suitable for any environment where the learning process takes place.
