It seems like CS is a subset of math.
- yarper 11y agoIn a word - specificity. The same question arises in a number of older fields of study, for example "is chemistry the same as physics?"
- mcguire 11y agoHere's a guess: the short answer is that the physicist would say 'yes', but would be unable to solve problems that the chemist would consider trivial.
- mcguire 11y agoThere is considerable overlap, but neither is a proper subset of the other. If anything, math is a subset of CS, except for the part that isn't.
