Which one should I learn first.

[PhysicsBegner]

Hi All, I'm a beginer in computer science. Can I start learning theory of computation without a deep knowledge in algorithms or should I learn Algorithms conecpts first and theory of computation? Please guide me.

Depends on how you learn. I prefer to know HOW to do something before I figure out WHY. So I would learn some programming and algorithms before hacking theory...which to my mind is kinda useless anyway...

Thank you, I will start with algorithms first.
