About Computer Science
Computer science is the study of computers and computing and involves their theoretical and algorithmic foundations, hardware and software, and their uses for processing information.

Computer science also involves the study of algorithms and data structures, modeling data, and information processes. Computer science draws some of its foundations from mathematics and engineering and therefore incorporates techniques from areas such as queuing theory, probability and statistics, and electronic circuit design. Computer science also makes heavy use of hypothesis testing and experimentation during the conceptualization, design, measurement, and refinement of new algorithms, information structures, and computer architectures.

Why is Computer Science important?
Computer science is important as it enables writing software to make computers do new things or accomplish tasks more efficiently.
Computer science specifically focuses on developing the problem-solving skills of the candidate. It also involves the design, development, and analysis of software and hardware used to solve problems in a variety of business, scientific and social contexts.

Computer science illustrates the underlying principles of programming and algorithms and their usage to design software and systems to meet the needs of clients and the public. They create applications for mobile devices, develop websites, and program software.
