from Sorting to Strategic Agents
(2022) pdf, print, school program
This book was written to support what was, during its operation from 2020-23, the most advanced high school math/CS track in the USA. It culminated in high school students doing masters/PhD-level coursework (reproducing academic research papers in artificial intelligence, building everything from scratch in Python).
“One of the best parts of reading Justin Skycak’s textbook for Eurisko (which covers a vast array of topics) is the number of times you go “Oooh here’s that cool algorithm I’ve vaguely heard about… wait that’s it? That’s the core idea? I did not expect you can explain it so simply!” If art is knowing what to leave out, this book is a masterwork.” — Julian
