Books for Computer Science

• Gate Books :: What to read and from Where : :

The success of Gate exam lies on to read subsequent topics from Standard Books. Generally in our Enginnering life we don’t get a chance to study these books or even we don’t know what the  ” Standard Books “ means . Here  the list of some standard books of Computer Science .

Students  should read one book thoroughly  rather consulting too many books. The choice of book should be one that give you clear inside about the subject and also simple and lucid so that we can understand basic things related to that subject (like Cohen book for Automata ). The links for most of these books are provided in the comment section.
