When I think "which of my college classes could I have learned more from if I'd had an iPad version of the textbook", data structures and algorithms stands out the most. I'd love to see a really good adaptation of an already-good static textbook in these fields... I'm not in school anymore, but I might read it just for fun.
- jacobolus 16y agoYes. Both data structures and CS theory (making proofs about different computation models, &c.) courses would benefit tremendously even from having better PC/web-based visualizations/simulations. Stepping through the behavior of turing machines, or graph searching algorithms, or what have you, is much much clearer on a computer than on a blackboard or paper.
