[Answer] Any Recommended Introductory Computer Science Books for High School Seniors?
I’d recommend a set of beginner-friendly books on computers that explain things in a clear and accessible way. They are suitable not only for high school seniors, but also for anyone interested in computers and programming who is starting from scratch. The set includes:
- How Computers Work
- How Networks Work
- How Programs Run
If you’re still interested after finishing these, you can go a bit further with:
- Illustrated Guide to Network Hardware
- Illustrated Guide to HTTP
- Illustrated Guide to TCP/IP
- Illustrated Guide to Cryptography
