Linear algebra. I took this class my sophomore year.
>>53378425
The CS people I talk to tend to treat math as that class they are forced to take but don't really care about (I'm a maths major btw).
There is a difference between knowing the definition of an eigenvector and actually understanding what it is and why it's an important concept.
That Networks is actually the way to go.

>>53378212
Not that I don't know how to do it, but I can't remember more than a handful of times where I've ever had to invert a matrix by hand, or even know how to do it, in my bachelor CS curriculum.
Then again, my uni is pretty shit since they don't give dedicated math courses for CS. Instead they spread it out over the other courses, with the intent that you get a more "hands on" approach where you apply the math you just learned directly.
That's a shit approach.
>>53378493
This. Most people also view math as a set of methods for particular problems (e.g. matrices can be used for graphics) instead of general ideas for solving pretty much any problem you can represent that way.

How to regex. Can't believe how many Cs majors can tell me how a compiler works but can't write a simple regex
>>53378882
but they intentionally don't teach that so business majors can exploit your lack of knowledge later.
I'm only a computer science major due to all the possibilities it offers.
I could careless about being good at programming, but just being a CS major gives me the choice of choosing both being an IT Tech and a web developer, besides being a software engineer/gamedev is too much of a hassle.
>>53378242
First year in electrical engineering, just started C, can anyone actually tell me what's the proper way to do this?
>>53378212

use float for averaging why the fuck would you ever average two integers
>>53381210
To be fair, regex is inconsistent, and absolutely incoherent once you start trying to use the non-regular extensions (why the fuck do these exist?)
Though you're right, you do have to know some flavour.
>>53381210
How to (properly) implement regex. Can't believe how many CS majors can tell me how an NFA works but can't implement a linear-time regex matching algorithm.
How many of you use the CS knowledge on a regular basis and what parts of it?
>>53382900

For example, I use linear algebra a lot. It's really fun, because everything is so linear you get to do all sorts of cool reordering and refactoring.

>>53383507
For instance, averaging 200 and 5000 is easy:
unsigned int a = 200;
unsigned int b = 5000;
unsigned int average = (a + b) / 2; // Equals: 2600 as intended
But in the case of 4294967295 and 5000 then:
unsigned int a = 4294967295;
unsigned int b = 5000;
unsigned int average = (a + b) / 2; // Equals: 2499 instead of 2147486147
The best I've come up with is:
unsigned int a = 4294967295;
unsigned int b = 5000;
unsigned int average = (a / 2) + (b / 2); // Equals: 2147486147 as expected

This post will mostly relate to Software engineers, due to its second part. I won't list programming domain-specific courses like OOP, software architecture, computer architecture or OS theory and will instead focus on what surrounds them.
Disclaimer: everything's listed in no particular order
1)Math related
Some basic propositional logic, first order logic and set theory. Just enough to blow student's minds.
Real Analysis
Abstract Algebra and Discrete Maths
Probability Theory and Statistics
Linear Algebra
Optimisation Theory and Linear Programming are also useful
Numerical Algorithms, because obvious solution to most math problems is always the worst
Algorithm Theory and maybe some Complexity Theory
At least 2 semesters of physics. Yes, physics. Helps you not forget LinAl and Analysis, requires some easy vector calculus and helps you develop intuition on how to map mathematical concepts onto a specific domain.
Without at least a minimal exposure to these things you aren't even considered a normal human being.
2)Communication related
Communication class. You have to be able to clearly convey your ideas to others and convince them that you are right.
Some basic accounting class, financial and project management classes. So you won't fuck up your time and money and so you will be able to work in or even lead a team.
>>53384077
Damn that's a lot of maths... How does this differ from CS?
>>53384077
The one thing on that list I have literally NEVER used while programming is real functional analysis.
>>53384204
That's only an ideal. I personally didn't have some of the subjects listed in my course, like complexity theory or optimisation theory, though their inclusion surely wouldn't have hurt.
And CS students, in my humble opinion, should have even more math - formal languages, deeper studies of discrete math, algebra and combinatorics, category theory, type theory and many other areas. After all, it is Computer SCIENCE, not Computer CRAFT. Software Engineering should be lighter on math, but it should also, obviously, contain more subjects that pertain to actual software building.
tl;dr CS - almost pure science, SE - leaning more to practical parts.
As you might infer through my posts, I have a certain antipathy to "Java Schools" and people who think that math in CS is useless.

Well, calculus, analysis - however you name it. Universities in my country don't make the distinction between calculus and analysis - it's called just "Mathematical Analysis", and perhaps that was a source of confusion, as "analysis" implies a much deeper study from what I know. And I by this subject I simply meant basic theory of functions, integrals, derivatives and DEs. Basic things that are useful to at least have a concept about everywhere.

This right here is what I want from my CS curriculum.
What I get is about 50% CS, 40% pure maths and 10% bullshit (e.g. java).
If my current level of interest continues as it is, I think I'm going to drop out of university before I finish my bachelor's. It's just so mind-numbingly mundane.
>>53384528
>math is just (another) language
And then you read up on logic and see that it is kind of limited in some really strange ways: that it can't talk about itself without shitting itself (Gödel's second incompleteness theorem), can't even generally say what's true or not (Tarski's theorem), some shit is just insane at first sight unless you look at it really carefully (Skolem's paradox) and from all that even weirder conclusions arise.
And it's just me and a single introductory book on Logic with which I semi-casually studied. I'm afraid of what lies next. But damn, was it fun.
"What every computer scientist should know about memory"
"What ever computer scientist should know about floating point numbers"
Both are really good read
>>53384598
T-thanks.
>>53384767
>Skolem's paradox
Didn't know about this. I looked it up on wikipedia.
I only skimmed the article and have only a basic understanding of the involved concepts, but am I very wrong in understanding Skolem's paradox as basically being a proof that there exist real numbers which you can't define and reason about in e.g. ZF?
Intuitively that makes complete sense to me, because almost all real numbers contain an infinite amount of information.
>>53384881
In particular, the real numbers which we can work with as human beings are almost certainly countable - due to the fact that the set of english-language papers describing real numbers is countable.
>>53384897
Oh, and every mathematical proof in PDF form - no matter how complex, elegant, involved or groundbreaking - is going to be some sequence of 0s and 1s. Hence we can almost trivially assert that the set of mathematical proofs and statements that can be represented in _any_ usable theory of mathematics is countable.
>>53379732
Pretty much exactly that. Markov chain stuff. X at position K is dependant on the two adjacent positions.

>>53384716
What year are you in?
>>53384881
There was/is a thread that touched upon that question recently while talking about how shitty wikipedia can get. Basically, the very concept of definability is extremely subtle and generally belongs to the metatheories. See http://mathoverflow.net/questions/44102/is-the-analysis-as-taught-in-universities-in-fact-the-analysis-of-definable-numb and http://de.arxiv.org/abs/1105.4597
tl;dr due to Tarski's theorem there need not be a bijection between what can be defined and what is true. Moreover, the concept of "definition" in a theory cannot be expressed inside of it. The stackoverflow answer also includes a wonderful and simple counterexample with ordinals.
And about Skolem: it basically states "think in terms of the model, nigga, not metamodel"
>>53385023
Starting my 5th semester soon. (Nominal study time is 6 semesters)
I've completed all of the upper coursework, advanced CS topics and optional mathematics courses.
Still missing a few basic ones though (2-nd year Java programming crap, analysis II) and my interest has dropped to zero.
I want to just stop studying and get a job as a sysadmin or something. I work part-time as one and it's the only reason I even go to university anymore.

I'm not a fan of meta-mathematics. Nor am I a fan of philosophy. Neither am I a fan of religion.
These things all have something in common to me: They're based on the study of unanswerable questions.
I prefer playing within rigid rulesets. I don't really care what rule set you give me, I will play with it and try figuring out what I can do inside it.
Figuring out which set of rules may or may not be able to theoretically cover the needs of mathematics feels like philosophical masturbation to me.

Now that came out of nowhere. "Meta" here mean, roughly, higher order. And it's all based on logic which is as rigid as it gets. There's absolutely no philosophy here.

To be honest you should know a lot about this, it is how computers work. Otherwise you are getting some form of neo-code-monkey education or something. Study it on your own.
School isn't even close to enough to learn everything you need to know most of the time. Maybe this is because I am an older student so I feel a lot more pressure to learn as much as I can in as short amount of time but I really feel people rely way to much on their schools curriculum for showing them 'what they should know' when really it's not even remotely close enough to stand out as someone that is knowledgeable.
I study network systems/security at school but since it is also my hobby and what I want to do as a career I spend a lot of my free-time developing more knowledge.
As a simple example understanding x86 architecture/assembly language is very important for malware analysis/reverse engineering/exploit development.
Some people in my class are going to graduate barely being able to load a metasploit module or configure a Cisco switch because they either don't care or don't understand what it takes to actually be good at something.

Fifteen years in the industry, BS and MS degrees before I went in, working in Silicon Valley for one of the big guys, over a hundred interviews under my belt.
Know how to code on a whiteboard. Read "cracking the coding interview" and practice. Do Project Euler. Read "test driven development by example"; it's worthwhile.
If you have an interest, follow it--security, graphics, machine learning, sysadmin, whatever. Distributed systems is pretty useful, if you're into that.
You can't cram the entire field into your head. Code regularly, follow your interests, and stay sharp. There's work out there if you're good at it.

I gave a talk on a topic I'd researched a week prior (IoT security) to about thirty students, and it went off really well.
I *never* thought I'd be able to do that; I'm introverted, and shy, and generally not into public speaking. I found out I had a knack for it, I'm interested, and I apparently turned into an expert at some point.
Public speaking is hard, but it can be really awesome once you learn to pull it off. I started by telling stories at our weekly ops review, which was a lot more informal. But however you get started, it's a damned fine skill to have.

I interview for a major tech company. (Over a hundred interviews so far.) I ask FizzBuzz as a warmup. Getting it right just means we move onto the real questions; getting it wrong means that we can stop wasting everyone's time, and I'll just ask you about your resume or some shit to fill time.

That as stupid as reading a SAT prep book.

The only buzzword is data mining.

I've never used it, but apparently there are sample interview questions in there. Have someone read them to you, do them on a whiteboard. It's good preparation, seriously.
>>53385727
and what if they're __int128?
>>53381644int average (const int x, const int y)
{
if ((x > 0) == (y < 0))
return (x + y) / 2;
const int xh = x / 2;
const int yh = y / 2;
const int xhr = x % 2;
const int yhr = y % 2;
return xh + yh + (xhr & yhr);
}
Pussy is a trap that will keep you from doing your job correctly.

Everyting is a useless buzzword. No really, it means nothing to me. "Data base theory"? Wtf you just sit and write the code to commnucate with a data base. Talking or reading books ABOUT programming is stupid and pointless.

(b-a)/2+a?
this shit could cause overflow as well
>>53390813
ah wait, did you mean only positive integers?
>>53378242
a / abs(a) * (b / abs(b)) > 0 ? (a - b) / 2 + b : (a + b) / 2

a = INT_MIN => abs(a) == a

A DBA and a PM wouldn't really interact seeing as if your company is not garbage your DBA isn't your developer, your systems analyst, your QA, nor your business analyst. DBA is the ICT profession that requires the least social skills, where as a PM and a BA require the most.
>>53391727
So a PM firing a developer for his social skills is okay?
