    Is there a “right age” to start studying computer science?

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 12:07 AM PDT

    I'm 18 and I'm considering start studying code and some languages right now.

    Data science is something that interests me and I know that it would've been better if I had built basic knowledge about programming earlier in my life, but I only started to admire this area last year.

    Do you think that "the earlier the better" or that "age is just a number"? Am I at the right age to start coding?

    Is Anyone Here Interested in a Godel Escher Bach Group Read?

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 10:02 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    Since lockdown started, I've used the opportunity to tackle a few books burning some space on my bookshelf, and GEB is one that I haven't quite gotten around to yet. I know there are some accompanying lectures from MIT OCW, etc., but I can't help but feel like this would be best served by having some companions along the way.

    Is anyone else interested in opening this strange loop with me this summer?

    EDIT: Well awesome, seems like there's some interest!

    I've gone ahead and created a discord server that I invite everyone to join. I'm not quite sure how to get the ball rolling, but I'm sure we'll figure it out. Feel free to invite people who you think might be interested!

    I'm also going to x-post this to /r/geb.

    Cheers!

    Troubles understanding Dynamic programming

    Posted: 09 Jun 2020 02:44 AM PDT

    Hello everyone, For the past month or two, I have been trying to learn Dynamic programming. I have watched a lot of videos and read articles, but I feel like it's not helping. I understand the basic idea of Dp and I can solve some basic problems like Fibonacci, Longest increasing subsequence (but I have problems with the O(n log n) solution), coin problem, shortest path in a matrix... However, when I try to solve some problems that require Dp, I can't do it and the editorial isn't very helpful.

    Do you have any tips for me? I am 15 years old and have been doing programming for about 2 years now and this year I got into competetive programming.

    [R] Turing Award | A Deep Dive Into Levoy and Hanrahan’s 1996 Paper on Light Field Rendering

    Posted: 08 Jun 2020 08:02 AM PDT

    In March of this year, Pat Hanrahan and Edwin Catmull were honoured with the 2019 Turing Award. As the founding members of the Pixar Animation Studios, Hanrahan and Catmull helped establish the foundations for today's computer graphics. In the seminal 1996 paper Light Field Rendering, Levoy and Hanrahan describe a representation for light fields that allows for both efficient creation and display. This representation provides a way of generating novel rendered views of a 3-D scene using a 4-D data structure. The paper also discusses practical issues associated with working with light fields, including measuring light fields from virtual and real scenes, tackling aliasing, storing light fields, and rendering novel views of a scene from a light field model.

    The associated Wikipedia page describes a "light field" as "a vector function that describes the amount of light flowing in every direction through every point in space" and then introduces 5-D and 4-D light fields in this context. These examples however may not be the best foundation on which to build an understanding of light field research. Thus, in this article the author will try to give an introduction to light fields that provides the proper prerequisites for understanding Levoy and Hanrahan's paper on light field rendering.
