casper3912 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Theres alot of books out there. i bought 'ppk on javascript' and 'Dom scripting' awhile back and they were helpful. I imagine you all have bought a number of books and know a number of good resources what would be your suggestions on what to buy and what to stay away from?I specifically want to learn more about the following topics:CSSDom. general CGI scriptingcomputer science how to run and set up a server.mysql PHPTool Command language (TCL)javascript. xmli know javascript and dom the best out of the above list. In the fall i'm planning on attending school for computer engineering and minoring in business. If any of you know anything that might get me a head start in school over the summer i would appreciate that as well. also ever since i heard about 'algorithmic trading' i've been wanting to see what i could learn(and use) about that as well. (economics fascinates me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(economics fascinates me)Careful, algorithms are useful but over-reliance causes a lot of problems.http://nymag.com/news/business/55687/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
