Hi,
I am going to be off to York university in October to study Computer Science and Systems Engineering and I have been advised to learn a bit about the following four areas:
~ Programming (Scheme)
~ Architectures (How a simple processor works [they recommended looking at a z80])
~ Electronics (Logic gates, simplification of circuits with karnaugh maps, sequential logic)
~ Maths (Boolean Algebra, Set theory, [and some calculus revision])
I already have Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs for the programming stuff but can anybody recommend any good books that give a grounding in the other three areas (architectures, electronics and maths). Please bear in mind I know very little in any of these areas (that's why I'm going to uni after all).
