How is operations research useful for a computer science student?
I am being offered as an elective at my college and had to decide whether to take it or not.
@jaskaran_1 : you can read what Operations Research is at :
It is a very useful subject to study .
However if it is pitted against Data Mining , Artificial Intelligence , then these are more core to computer science .
I would strongly recommend doing Operations Research course if you are choosing it against less important/relevant courses .
