WHY IS THIS BOOK SO HARD
And no I'm not dumb I already passed a course on Mathematics for Computer Science, I just wanted to learn a bit more.

WHY IS THIS BOOK SO HARD

Nope, you're legit retarded if you find CM too hard.
I mean, it's challenging but "too hard"? lol, I'd suggest you go for liberal arts or women studies instead
Nicholas Cook
Yes, you are dumb and should consider killing yourself
Robert Stewart
What is a great book to begin with math?
Joshua Stewart
Except that I already passed a course on math for cs.
You know what the problem with this book is? That the authors have literally zero pedagogy. They think that because they know or understand something, their students should also understand it. Well here's the deal, if we did we wouldn't students then, at least not undergrad students.
Same deal with SICP. Good content, great authors, ZERO pedagogy. People who don't know how to teach shouldn't write books. I'll stick to books written by professors.
Kevin Gray
math for cs is brainlet-tier

Concrete is a very hard material.
Kevin Kelly
Jacob Green
Colton Wright
This is why /sci/ thinks we're retarted
Luke Myers
confirmed dumb-ster!
Charles Cruz
Concrete is a pretty difficult text, as is any, ignore the losers on here trying to make you feel bad about not being able to get through it
Ryan Stewart
nice
Josiah Baker

Grayson Brooks
As is anything written by Knuth*
John Stewart
It's not like I can't, I just go through it at a snail's pace. I think this is a good book for a grad CS student, but the authors are absolutely wrong that it can be used as an introductory text.
Brody Peterson
That's normal, its rigor takes time to digest, it's not a book you can blaze through in a week.
Dominic Gomez
Concrete Math is pretty much world renowned for being impenetrable for self-study except for those of particular autismal inclination. Even when it was used to teach the course at Stanford, an unusually large chunk of students failed it every semester
Kayden Cruz
Because you bought the hardcover edition
Jaxson Torres
>I'm not dumb
>struggling with CM
lmao
Austin Morgan

good luck, most math professors are like that
Jason Edwards
What books would you recommend that cover same topics as "Code", "concrete maths", "SICP"?
Noah Gutierrez
Kek
Nathaniel Adams
Try this one instead.
Michael Long
Book is actually really well-written.
Requires little background in formal mathematics.
Look into Sipser's Theory of Computation
Thanks for reminding me to add this to my collection user
Kayden Martin
Just study discrete and stats. Works for 95% of the problems you'll encounter in the workplace.
Otherwise just get a masters.
Caleb James
Ayyyyyy

You're dumb if you find that an accomplishment.
