Prompt

Create a self-study roadmap with the best books for learning CS from ZERO. Recommend books, not online courses or videos. Organize the roadmap into the following sections: 1. Fundamentals 2. Undergraduate 3. Undergraduate electives 4. Graduate 5. Graduate electives 6. Other readings — worthwhile books and readings that are not central to the main progression. Within each section, classify resources as **essential**, **complementary**, or **supplementary**. For electives, include only the main options; do not attempt an exhaustive list. For each non-elective subject in the main progression, recommend **at least three books**. These should be alternatives to choose from, not three books I must read in full. The goal is to let me explore different approaches and find a book that suits my background and learning style. For example, when studying precalculus, I considered Stewart’s *Precalculus*, Axler’s *Precalculus*, and Lang’s *Basic Mathematics*. I sampled each before choosing one as my main resource. Similarly, for an introduction to proofs, I considered Hammack’s *Book of Proof*, Velleman’s *How to Prove It*, and Bloch’s *Proofs and Fundamentals*. These examples only illustrate why I want at least three options per non-elective subject. Do not treat them as instructions to include those subjects or books in the roadmap.
