Cool thx 
Github for a coin:
https://github.com/dogecoin/dogecoin
I found this informative:
ls *.* | while read X ; do echo $X; diff $X ../../dogecoin/src; done| less
pwd
/cygdrive/c/work/litecoin/mooncoin/src

I definitly want to understand more than just code compiling but I don't want to be too academic either.
Say if I start with an existing coin...I would want to be in a position to incorporate new conceptual ideas into the coin.
What would be the best place to start that learning?

I would say Networking, P2P networks and cryptography. From a non-programming standpoint, a basic understanding of trade markets and economics, but they're not essential. A lot of the copycoins being released seem to be based on a basic knowledge of code compiling.
Hi guys
I'm interested in learning the mechanics behind the workings of a coin. I want understand the mechanics of pow vs pos from a developers perspective. Enough to develop my own hybrid variations. I have a decent development background in c++.
Other than cryptography what other areas of computer science would I be expected to delve into? What are some are some of the helpful starting points on this quest?
Like I said I'm a competent C++ developer. Just new to coins.
Thx for any and all suggestions.
