Computer Science

is the study of the theoretical foundations of

information and computation, and of practical techniques for their implementation and application in computer systems.

True or False. Computers do not understand arbitrary instructions written in English, French, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew, etc..

• True

• False

True or False. Computers have their own languages that they understand. Each of these languages is known as a programming language.

True or False. Traditional programming languages were known as structural programming languages (e.g.,

C, Fortran, Pascal, Cobol, Basic).

• True

• False

True or False. Since the late 1980's however, object-oriented

programming languages have become more popular (e.g., JAVA, C++, C#)

• True

• False

True or False. Regardless of the area of study, computer science is all about NOT solving problems with

computers. The problems that we want to solve can come from any real-world problem or perhaps even from the abstract world.
