Ask HN: How do I choose the right resource to learn CS fundamentals?

For example:For intro courses:* Computer science an interdisciplinary approach (princeton)* CS61A - UCB* Introduction to CS and programming (MIT)* Stanford* CMUData Structures and Algorithms:* Princeton Algorithms* CS61B - UCB* Stanford Algorithms course* MIT Algorithms* CMUApart from this you have multiple books on each topic - Data Structures/Algorithms, Discrete Mathematics, Theory of Computation, Operating systems, Networks, and so on.Apart from these you also have resources like teachyourselfcs, ossu, functionalcs.github.io/curriculum/.I am attracted by the resources/online/books posted by courses in UCB/Princeton/MIT/Stanford/CMU. Is it worth going through multiple university courses/books for the same topic?For intro courses:* Computer science an interdisciplinary approach (princeton)* CS61A - UCB* Introduction to CS and programming (MIT)* Stanford* CMUData Structures and Algorithms:* Princeton Algorithms* CS61B - UCB* Stanford Algorithms course* MIT Algorithms* CMUApart from this you have multiple books on each topic - Data Structures/Algorithms, Discrete Mathematics, Theory of Computation, Operating systems, Networks, and so on.Apart from these you also have resources like teachyourselfcs, ossu, functionalcs.github.io/curriculum/.I am attracted by the resources/online/books posted by courses in UCB/Princeton/MIT/Stanford/CMU.

Is it to evaluate and compare everyone's materials?If your goal is your own learning, then why wouldn't you take a more advanced course from the same institution instead of repeating a slightly different version of what you've already learned?> Is it worth going through multiple university courses/books for the same topic?What is your goal exactly? I also like the way that the CMU assignment writes tests as simple functions, without magic docstring tooling.Don't skip the code tracing sections, where you read code and write the output by hand - it helps you understand and internalize what the code is doing, rather than just running code samples over and over again to see how it works.Also, there's some nice notes on debugging https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rdriley/112/notes/notes-debugging.ht...[1] I took this version, which is ordered a bit differently http://www.kosbie.net/cmu/spring-16/15-112/schedule.html15-112: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rdriley/112/assignments/02/CS 61A: https://cs61a.org/hw/hw02/The 61A assignment forces higher order functions way too early, and it's often discouraging to people just starting out - and it's not even common (in my experience) to write code like this anyways.
