选一门CS课 Design & Analysis of Algorithm 或 Advanced OS

楼主是EE的，下学期要选一门CS的课，未来想找Software Engineer或Data Scientist的职位，现在考虑这两门：
1. Design and Analysis of Algorithms

A study of advanced topics and techniques in discrete algorithms.  Assumes student has a solid preparation in undergraduate algorithms (including asymptotic notations, recurrences, divide-and-conquer, greedy algorithms, dynamic programming, and fundamental graph algorithms). Core topics include probabilistic and amortized analysis, network flow, NP-completeness, and parallel algorithms. Selected topics might include: linear programming, computational geometry, randomized algorithms, cryptographic algorithms, and approximation algorithms.

2. Advanced Operating Systems

This course studies advanced topics in the broad field of operating systems and distributed systems, including architectures of distributed operating systems, foundations of distributed operating systems, synchronization, scheduling, deadlocks handling, consistency and replication, fault tolerance and reliability, file systems and storage management, shared memory, and security.

楼主本科上过Algorithm，Algorithm的基础懂，没上过OS，所以2可能可以学到比较多新知识，1似乎对面试比较有帮助，可是又听同学说1太理论对面试帮助不大，想听听大家的意见，因为时间紧破，想选对面试帮助较大的那个，谢谢。

虽然说算法的理论和实际刷题面试还是有一点距离的，但是理论并不是可有可无的。如果能在算法课上取得好成绩，至少能打下良好的基础。高级操作系统，目测会很难，而且对于毕业后找工作没有特别明显的帮助。外加楼主提到本科没有上过OS，那直接上高级操作系统可能会更加困难。所以我建议你选择算法课。

时间紧迫?别CS了，挑一个最水的，然后刷题。

果断算法啊。。。千万别再选课的时候觉得自己很爱学。。。最后只会坑自己。。
操作系统是cs里最坑的课。。。。

Vote for both. 如果只能上一个就先上算法分析吧。OS学完了很可能用不到除非你找system的position
