what field of math should i fall into if i'm interested in computer science and programming?

Sorry, you're too retarded

Combinatorics, linear algebra, logic, category theory

could you recommend any concrete books?

as an applied math/engineering double major who will graduate with an associates in physics this picture is complete bullshit.

>> No.9487242

In case you are too autistic you could lurk into foundations of mathematics, namely type theories

>category theory
any good research worth doing in that field?

>fall for cs/math meme
>find myself most interested in topology, differential geometry, dynamical systems and find "discrete math", combinatorics, etc. and autistic shit like fundamentals, set theory, type theory, category theory etc. utterly useless
anyone else know this feel?

>> No.9487414

Combinatorics, Computational Number Theory, Logic/Set Theory, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Graph Theory.

>> No.9487418

I guess you're more of an analyst/geometer type.

I find topology to be very boring personally and like all the stuff you hate.

Different strokes.

Why is this bad? You are interested in a less explored field so you can make more contributions. My favorite Machine Learning approaches are manifold/topology learning ones.

>Programming
Set theory, number theory, digital logic, abstract algebra, linear algebra, graph theory.

>CS
Mathematical logic, category theory and automata and language theory.

>anyone else know this feel?
Yes, but I don't care. What makes me feel bad is the fact no one at my university studies those topics and no single career (not even the master and phd on CS) includes them. So I can't even teach what I like.

>>9487557
Yes. CS is all about mathematics and a bit of programming.
