My professor was terrible but the material blew my mind. I was looking forward to possibly taking this course again someday from the author (as a non-degree course at stanford), but he passed away in 2009.
fun fact: after staring at this book for too long I can only see the words "orgasm" and "hamster"
since you are a computer science student, you can start with proofs in Discrete Mathematics fo this you can look at Kenneth Rosen's book, it can help you with a lot of basic concepts, constructing proofs. Its a good book for those who want to go in algorithms or theoretical cs or a even want to work on pure maths problems. I had this same confusion I wanted to do maths but also cs with it. After this you can try "The art of computer programming"(this has 4 volumes) by Donald Knuth but CLRS is a must along with Rosen's if you want to take cs and maths side by side. If you want to explore further you can look at Design of Approximation Algorithms and Randomised Algorithms. These book can help you with concepts of probability, number theory, geometry, linear algebra etc. But then if you want pure math problems then search for them, go though different journals, SIAM and Combinatorica are really good ones, search them pick a problem you like, then find text relevant to problem and try to give better solutions.
Check out Randomized Algorithms, it's all about algorithms that play on probability and expectation.
