Module 13 — Computer Science Fundamentals
Why CS Fundamentals Matter
You can build CRUD apps without knowing Big-O notation. But to write code that scales, pass technical interviews at top companies, and understand why certain patterns are better than others, you need CS fundamentals.
Learning Objectives
- Analyze algorithm efficiency with Big-O notation
- Understand common data structures and when to use each
- Implement sorting algorithms and understand their trade-offs
- Use recursion to solve tree/graph problems
- Recognize and write efficient algorithms
