Good resources for Computer Science students

This site gives some good sites to use, if you're a computer science student. http://www.virtualhosting.com/blog/2008/50-killer-online-resources-for-computer-science-students/

The site categorizes the information into the following sections:

  • Advice
  • Money
  • Organizations
  • Careers
  • Artificial Intelligence
  • Hacking and Security
  • Programming
  • Information Sources
  • Tools & Assistance

 

Here are some of my favorites:

http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~bthom/advice.html has some nice advice if you are considering graduate school, and the truth about job searching for unemployed students.

 

http://dobrev.com/AI/definition.html a nice write-up from PC Magazine on what is AI.

 

http://www.acooke.org/andrew/writing/lang.html  a really nice read on the several must know terminology found in the world of programming.

 

http://www.99-bottles-of-beer.net/ a humorous and interesting concept. Instead of a list of "Hello World" in every language, this site writes out the lyrics to the song.

 

http://www.nist.gov/dads/  a dictionary of computer science terms, algorithms, and data structures.

 

http://www.geocities.com/ikind_babel/babel/babel.html - list of acronyms, because in computer science we just love making new ones all the time just to confuse people.
