A teenage programmer explores the concept of writing algorithms by creating step-by-step instructions to teach her computer a dance routine. Suitable for teaching at KS3, KS4 and National 4 and 5.

Computer science is the study of computers and computational systems. Computer scientists use various mathematical algorithms, coding procedures, and their expert programming skills to study computer ...

So, an algorithm is the process a computer uses to transform input data into output data. A simple concept, and yet every piece of technology that you touch involves many algorithms.

Today, an algorithm usually refers to “a sequence of instructions that tells a computer what to do.” A computer program is an algorithm, written in a computer programming language, that a ...

A new “Interview on Computer Science”. Serge Abiteboul and Christine Froidevaux interview Claude Berrou, computer engineer and electronics engineer, and a member of the French Academy of Sciences.

Computer scientists study the feasibility and mechanisation of procedures, known as algorithms, which underlie the acquisition, processing, storage and communication of data.

Computer scientists have written a network flow algorithm that computes almost as fast as is mathematically possible. This algorithm computes the maximum traffic flow with minimum transport costs ...

Quantum computers promise enormous computational power, but the nature of quantum states makes computation and data ...

A global push for more computer science in classrooms is starting to bear fruit ...

In recent years, ethical issues in computer science such as hacking, data collection, and algorithmic bias have profoundly impacted our culture.
