Usage

  • A directory is maintained for each course within which is a README that provides information regarding the course. The README may have the following sections if applicable :
    • Prerequisites - Courses that need to be completed prior to attempting the particular course
    • Textbooks - List of textbooks with links to their soft copies
    • Code - Implementation of course concepts
    • Videos - List of links of video explanations of course concepts
    • Websites - Useful websites
    • Articles - Cheat-sheets, tutorials, blog-posts etc.
    • Communities - Online forums related to the course concepts
    • Apps - Mobile apps that may enrich the learning experience
  • There are also scripts that provide certain useful features (WIP)

Guidelines

  • This repository provides links to the required study material such as textbooks, solution manuals and reference books.
  • Copies of the study material can be borrowed from the library while appearing for open-book exams. Moreover, printouts of the same can also be taken into the exam hall if required. Written notes are also allowed.
