Generating Functions
For compsci you need to study tons and tons and tons of discrete math. That means you don't need much of analysis business(too continuous). Instead you want to study combinatorics, graph theory, number theory, abstract algebra and the like.
Intro to math language(several of several million existing books on the topic). You want to study several books because what's overlooked by one author will be covered by another:
Discrete Mathematics with Applications by Susanna Epp
Mathematical Proofs: A Transition to Advanced Mathematics by Gary Chartrand, Albert D. Polimeni, Ping Zhang
Learning to Reason: An Introduction to Logic, Sets, and Relations by Nancy Rodgers
Numbers and Proofs by Allenby
Mathematics: A Discrete Introduction by Edward Scheinerman
How to Prove It: A Structured Approach by Daniel Velleman
Theorems, Corollaries, Lemmas, and Methods of Proof by Richard Rossi
Some special topics(elementary treatment):
Rings, Fields and Groups: An Introduction to Abstract Algebra by R. B. J. T. Allenby
A Friendly Introduction to Number Theory Joseph Silverman
Elements of Number Theory by John Stillwell
A Primer in Combinatorics by Kheyfits
Counting by Khee Meng Koh
Combinatorics: A Guided Tour by David Mazur
Just a nice bunch of related books great to have read:
generatingfunctionology by Herbert Wilf
The Concrete Tetrahedron: Symbolic Sums, Recurrence Equations, Generating Functions, Asymptotic Estimates by by Manuel Kauers, Peter Paule
A = B by Marko Petkovsek, Herbert S Wilf, Doron Zeilberger
If you wanna do graphics stuff, you wanna do some applied Linear Algebra:
Linear Algebra by Allenby
Linear Algebra Through Geometry by Thomas Banchoff, John Wermer
Linear Algebra by Richard Bronson, Gabriel B. Costa, John T. Saccoman
Best of Luck.
