I mean to say that this man says that Calculus doesn't play a big role in CS. Moreover the professor in this video says that "Mathematics in its continuous form" doesn't have a big role in CS too. That discrete mathematics and similar form of mathematics are much more useful. And that high...

By the way, since it was pointed above, I want to ask why is that Calculus and the continuous form of Mathematics not applicable to Computer Science. I never really understood that.

I am actually working through Thomas right now. Merely using Stewart as a book that I need for Homework. I really don't know why Stewart's Book became popular. It is so clear to me that his prose is incoherent.

So do you recommend Lang first before Jacobs or the other way around? I just want to be sure because I have only the winter break to actually learn Geometry. Also to help, I actually read and nearly completed the Book 1 of Euclid's Elements. So its not that I have absolutely no clue what...

That is very good question. A question that I myself don't know a specific answer. However, I am considering to get my masters in Computer Science specializing in Artificial Intelligence. Its more of an inclination rather than the idea that I am absolutely sure that that is what I will do. The...

PS. I can't actually read Kiselev right this time perhaps at winter break. Time is not very friendly as always.

I actually found a copy of Lang and Murrow at my library. Would you recommend it as a supplement for Kiselev. Thanks btw for answering my questions.

Do you think I need to brush off my geometry with Kiselev first or is it unnecesary for computer science fields in general? I find this problematic since I realyly don't know wht kinds of math my major really need.

I am sorry but can you explain why this books are good?

Dude! Thanks for that link. This is why i love physics forum. I wish I discovered this site when I was a kid. (Although, I hated mathematics back then anyways) I actually don't know what route I should go to. Whether or not I should delve into analysis on my own or the engineering route of...

I am willing to do anything to learn calculus. I don't think I would like to relearn calculus from Stewart's book again though. To be fair with the author his exercises are good. But I want the coherent explanations.

Hello fellow science enthusiasts! I will start by describing my problem. I am majoring in Computer Science. More importantly, I am taking a course in Single Variable Calculus I. We are using the textbook written by Stewart: Calculus Early Transcendentals. And as I continue read through it...
