Min-Max Heaps Think of them as double ended priority queues. O(n) construction with O(lgN) mutations. Both the min and max elements are quick to get O(1). The paper is short and the data structure is elegant. I read it a few years ago in un

Oh man. This course brings back so many memories of suffering through this material. But I can't emphasize how important this stuff is to know if you want to know anything significant in Computer Science. What helped me ace the the exa

Looking over the second part of the MIT course, I see that a lot of the same material is covered in this free textbook. http://cglab.ca/~michiel/DiscreteStructures/

If some of you feel a bit overwhelmed with the material, you may be well served by watching the first few lecture's of the following playlist: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG96LXNYz9x7eTqSRtQ2R9A It is Carleto

Learning those topics will not be a waste of time. You'll see them come up time and time again on your path towards more CS topics.

OP here. This textbook is being taught as a second year discrete math course at Carleton University. I found it to be really high quality, and on par with similar sections from the Rosen or Epp texts. Oh... Also, it is free!

Actually, the first class is now Java and C++. Morin isn't teaching Python any more. "Functional" programming is taught in third year (COMP 3007), but you don't get too deep into it. My issue with the listed classes isn&

99% PI is what introduced Kowloon. The show did an amazing job of conveying just how special that place was. It is an great pod cast that captures the majesty of day to day design and architecture. It is unfortunate that the images don&#x27

This sounds a lot like a home/urban oriented WWOFing ( http://www.wwoof.net/ ) and a bit like CouchSurfing.

I'm in my last year of Comp-Sci. I started the program as a self taught adult. I can say that very little I've learned in school has been useful for the internships and jobs I've since had. That being said, I would never trad

The book was written by Pat Morin, a prof at Carleton University in Canada, because other texts were too expensive. It's used to teach a first undergraduate class in data structures. He's open to any additions. Just fork the github project

The first data structure, the Compact dynamic array, is explained beautifully for an undergraduate audience, in Pat Morin's Open Data Structures open source data structures textbook. He calls them rootish array stacks. http://opendatastruc

Just remember that Wind and Moblicity are on a different network than Rogers, Telus, Fido and Bell. My experience with Wind is that the reception is my city (Ottawa) is terrible at best. I'm considering switching to Moblicity.

Buddy, you had the balls to take a risk. You fell on your face, but at least you took the risk. You did more good in that failure than most dreamers do in their lives. That willingness to put it all on the line will probably serve you all y
