Computer Science Distilled: Learn the Art of Solving Computational Problems (Theoretical Minimum in Computer Science) (Category Software)

I used to. told about the book "How to explain computer science to a child", which was perfectly translated by the publishing house MIF and famously got not only to the target audience (children)It was also suitable for the older generation who were interested in IT. Today I decided to recall a good book for beginners "Computer Science Distilled". Learn the art of solving a computational problem.” However, marketers of the publishing house Peter decided to make the Russian name more selling and called the translated book "Theoretical minimum for Computer Science". Everything a programmer and developer needs.

If you evaluate the content of the book according to the original title, then everything is fine. The author, Vladston Ferreira Filo, writes on his fingers: basics (modeling, logic, combinatorics, probabilities)

  • computational complexity Strategies in working with algorithms data (abstract data types, general abstractions, structures)
  • algorithms (sorting, searching, graphing)
  • databases (sql, nosql, distributed model) computers (architecture, compilers, memory)
  • programming (linguistics, variables, paradigms)

In general, the author worked hard and made a book that can be given to a six-year-old from kindergarten or an older child, for example, a seven-year-old from first grade school:) But the marketers who came up with the names decided to hypan on the popularity of the theme of “entry into it” and added to the title “Everything that a programmer and developer needs”. But this is about the same as on the alphabet to add "All that a writer and a poet need".

The book is for beginners, and the publishing house Peter is manipulators.)
