Hey!

Great that you're interested in studying computer science — it's a powerful and exciting
field. To get into it, there are a few key areas you should focus on. Here’s a breakdown of the
subjects and skills you’ll want to learn:

Core Subjects:

1. Mathematics:
o Discrete Mathematics (logic, sets, combinatorics, graph
theory)
o Linear Algebra
o Calculus (basic understanding is useful)
o Probability and Statistics

2. Programming:
o Start with languages like Python, C, or Java
o Learn problem-solving and algorithms
o Get used to data structures (arrays, lists, trees, hash tables,
etc.)

3. Computer Science Fundamentals:


o Algorithms and Data Structures
o Computer Architecture (how computers work inside)
o Operating Systems
o Databases
o Networking
o Software Engineering

4. Theoretical CS (more advanced):


o Automata Theory
o Computability and Complexity

5. Optional but useful:


o Web development
o Mobile app development
o Machine Learning / AI
o Cybersecurity
o Cloud Computing / DevOps

Soft Skills & Tools:

 Problem solving (via platforms like LeetCode, HackerRank, etc.)


 Version control (Git/GitHub)
 Critical thinking
 Project-based learning (build your own apps, games, or tools)

Do you want to study this formally (like in university), or are you more into self-learning? I can
recommend a path based on that.
