I'd also learn SICP: https://www.amazon.com/Structure-Interpretation-Computer-Programs-Engineering/dp/0262510871 https://www.amazon.com/Structure-Interpretation-Computer-Pro...
and algorithms from either CLRS https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Algorithms-3rd-MIT-Press/dp/0262033844 https://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Algorithms-3rd-MIT-Press... or Skiena Algorithm Design https://www.amazon.com/Algorithm-Design-Manual-Steven-Skiena/dp/1848000693 https://www.amazon.com/Algorithm-Design-Manual-Steven-Skiena...
- corysama 10y agoAlong with SICP, The Little Schemer would be a great book to work through on paper. https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/little-schemer https://mitpress.mit.edu/books/little-schemer Once that is worked through, Godel, Escher, Bach would be an especially entertaining and enlightening read.
