The follow-up to Cory Althoff's bestselling The Self-Taught
Programmer, which inspired hundreds of thousands of professionals
to learn to program outside of school! Fresh out of college and
with just a year of self-study behind him, Cory Althoff was offered
a dream first job as a software engineer for a well-known tech
company, but he quickly found himself overwhelmed by the amount of
things he needed to know, but hadn't learned yet. This experience
combined with his personal journey learning to program inspired his
widely praised guide, The Self-Taught Programmer. Now Cory's back
with another guide for the self-taught community of learners
focusing on the foundations of computer science. The Self-Taught
Computer Scientist introduces beginner and self-taught programmers
to computer science fundamentals that are essential for success in
programming and software engineering fields. Computer science is a
massive subject that could cover an entire lifetime of learning.
This book does not aim to cover everything you would learn about if
you went to school to get a computer science degree. Instead,
Cory's goal is to give you an introduction to some of the most
important concepts in computer science that apply to a programming
career. With a focus on data structures and algorithms, The
Self-Taught Computer Scientist helps you fill gaps in your
knowledge, prepare for a technical interview, feel knowledgeable
and confident on the job, and ultimately, become a better
programmer. Learn different algorithms including linear and binary
search and test your knowledge with feedback loops Understand what
a data structure is and study arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues,
hash tables, binary trees, binary heaps, and graphs Prepare for
technical interviews and feel comfortable working with more
experienced colleagues Discover additional resources and tools to
expand your skillset and continue your learning journey It's as
simple as this: You have to study computer science if you want to
become a successful programmer, and if you don't understand
computer science, you won't get hired. Ready for a career in
programming, coding, or software engineering and willing to embrace
an "always be learning" mindset? The Self-Taught Computer Scientist
is for you.
