Summary: "In a general way, we can define computing to mean any goal-oriented activity requiring, benefiting from, or creating computers. This is a very broad definition that comprises the development of computer hardware, the use of computer applications, and the development of computer software. It includes the study and experimentation of algorithmic processes, and development of the hardware and software. Computing has scientific, engineering, mathematical, technological and social aspects. The electronic computer is one of the most important developments of the twentieth century. Like the industrial revolution of the nineteenth century, the computer and the information and communication technology built upon it have drastically changed business, culture, government and science, and have touched nearly every aspect of our lives. This text introduces the field of computing and details the fundamental concepts and practices used in the development of computer applications. This book provides basic introduction to the exciting world of computing, encompassing the theory, technology, history, and programming. It focuses on how to describe information processes by defining procedures, how to analyze the costs required to carry out a procedure, and the fundamental limits of what can and cannot be computed mechanically. This book will be useful to undergraduate students"-- Back cover.
