Starting Computer Science Degree In September, need advice.

Hey.
I'm starting a BSc in Computer Science at UOB in September and was looking for any advice to get prepared during the summer. Personally I am thinking of getting the hang of Python as well as look into algorithms and data structures but not sure of the best way.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hello I’m a final year student doing a BSc degree in Computer Networks and Technology. Python does take time to learn have you considered looking through online tutorials for coding in python for example or have you considered purchasing some books as a way to help you :

Sorry I haven’t logged into hear in a long time but I just made a slack for our year group, feel free to join also you have to tell me what you’ve been working on because I literally spent today asking people on LinkedIn what I should do to prepare prior to starting:
