Math textbook disses computer scientists in the nerdiest way possible

Computer science concepts are often named after real-world equivalents. 

A queue, for instance, is a data structure where the first object in is the first object out, much like the functions of a real-word queueA stack, meanwhile, is last-in first-out, similar to how one would retrieve items from a stack without toppling it over.

And then there’s the tree. 

Instead of growing upwards like the trees you see outside, the tree structure grows downwards, something that the writers of this particular discrete math textbook decided to call out. Read more…
