"Computer science,
or computing science, is the study of the theoretical foundations of
information and
computation and their
implementation and application in
computer systems.Computer science has many
sub-fields; some
emphasize the computation of specific results (such as
computer graphics), while
others (such as
computational complexity theory)
relate to properties of
computational problems.
Still others focus on the challenges in implementing computations. For
example,
programming language theory
studies approaches to describing computations, while
computer programming
applies specific
programming languages to
solve specific computational problems with solutions. A further subfield,
human-computer interaction,
focuses on the challenges in making computers and computations useful,
usable and universally accessible to
people".
