I decided to share this recommendation with you, because (I'm kind of new to this discussion forum) and I have found very valuable how people are excited about CS. This book aims to both the computer literate and the people without prior experience of CS concepts before: Nine Algorithms That Changed the Future: The Ingenious Ideas That Drive Today's Computers by John MacCormick In the first three chapters you'll find another approach of the contents covered in this course so far. Also in the fourth, you can get a good idea of one of the most famous algorithms used in Cryptography and increase your interest to take your knowledge to another level (maybe enrolling in Applied Cryptography class?) I hope you find the book enjoyable as I did when I read it! :) |
Book recommendation for all of you!

Which algorithm is it? DES? RSA?
Diffie–Hellman key exchange algorithm. RSA algorithm is covered in Chapter 9 to explain how digital signatures work.
@alanav - Could you add the book as an answer to this question?
Done! That's an excellent list.
Thanks for that :) Selfishly I want to be able to just hit one spot when I'm book hunting ;)
