"Student question. Computer science in education, starting even in elementary school. Good idea? Gates. Hmm. I think computer is a great tool, but if by computer science we mean understanding queing theory and hashing and database indexes, not sure. But knowing how to write a program, prime numbers by algorithm is very interesting test of whether I know prime numbers. What’s really necessary? Geometry? No, probably not. But certainly a level of complex thinking valuable to be exposed to. Statistics very important. Where computer scientist falls in hierarchy, I don’t know." Obviously elementary level students don't need to know queing theory etc. However, I think a lot games developers might disagree that Geometry is not really necessary. There's other uses as well I'm developing a web app for customizing products and I use Geometry every day.
