This repo has some usefull links to websites for topics, please fork, add and generate a pull-request to join the party:tada::smirk:

Show your ❤️ for spreading knowledge 😎 🤘

Tips

Once you visit the link, to venture into more links related to that subject/instructor/university play around with the link ,i.e change the link hierarchy

eg: http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~martha/courses/4130/au13/ to http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~martha/courses/ to see other courses of the faculty.

Instructions to add links

1. Please maintain the heirarchy
2. Incase you think you have to add a new category please do so in respective heirarchy
3. You may add a line or two for links discription.
4. If you feel a course link is outdated please CUT IT DOWN don't remove it.
