a real bottom up would start from transistors, universal xor, flip flop memory, code execution, algorithmic complexity, data structures, abstraction, recursion, graphs, concurrency, distributed system design.
- photojosh 5y ago> transistors, universal xor, flip flop memory, These are the 'bottom up' of computer engineering, which are implementation details (my course included semiconductor physics as well). Computer science tends to look at theoretical constructs like Turing machines instead of these. The remaining topics which are indeed computer science.
