CS is a lot broader than programming ... that's all I was trying to say.
- anamax 17y ago> CS is a lot broader than programming CS is a lot broader than computer programming, but one can program things that are not computers.
- cperciva 17y agoCS is a lot broader than computer programming, but one can program things that are not computers. One can compute on things which are not computers, too. Computer science is the study of computation, not the study of computers.
- anamax 17y agoI was unclear - I was using computers as "things that compute". (And assuming that there are things that don't compute, Wolfram notwithstanding.) One can program things that don't compute such as social entities.
