Fun, Friendly Computer Science
summary
Covers fundamentals—Big O, set theory, recursion and the four OOP principles—compressed into seven topics in 35 minutes with clear cooking and horse metaphors and code examples for each idea. Provides language ports (Ruby, JavaScript, Python), a GitHub repo with runnable UI with tests and per-concept commits, and slides posted. Claims aim to demystify CS for beginners and interviewees; expect high-level explanations, concrete code you can pull and run, not deep proofs.
