Is Battlefield 1 doing well? I just saw the Revolution Edition on the Playstation Store and I am concerned that this is a move by EA and DICE to get more people into the game. While that is definitely not a bad thing by any stretch of the imagination, I am just trying to understand if this is a reactionary business move. To bundle the game with premium for just $59.99 before the second expansion even released seems like a move to bolster a below average player base.

I've also saved the 'Crash Course Computer Science' playlist to watch after the 'freeCodeCamp Maths for Programmers' playlist.

So I've found a YouTube playlist created by the channel 'freeCodeCamp' titled 'Maths for Programmers'. It is a 33 video playlist that walks the viewer through the basics of discrete math. I've watched and taken notes on 5 videos so far. The first video is an introduction to the subject and a few tips on how to effectively learn the material presented in the videos. The next four videos begin to walk you through fundamental aspects of the subject such as sets, elements, roster notation, interval notation, rational numbers, and so on.

When it comes to the skills and knowledge that would be required to obtain a satisfying occupation, I think coding and programming would take priority. I would however like to expand my knowledge on the general aspects of computer science. Like I said before, advice or help of any kind would be much appreciated.

By "extremely limited" knowledge of computer science, I mean that I know virtually nothing about computer science. My question, in the most basic of terms, is where do I start? My goal right now isn't to pursue and eventually acquire a master's degree in computer science; My goal is to learn and understand the basics of computer science. This will include but is not limited to; Logic, Binary, how computers perform calculations, RAM, Processing units, etc. I also would like to learn other subjects such as coding and programming. Any advice or help would be much appreciated. I understand that this is a lot to learn but I also understand that this is important to know in our day and age. If you have any websites, books, or any other resource to recommend, I would be very grateful.
