Computer science

Computer science is the study of the operating principles of computers, computer programming languages and algorithms for solving theoretical as well as practical problems. It involves the development and use of devices for processing information. It also deals with advantages and disadvantages of computer, its features, application field and its impact on the society. Information in one form is presented to the device (input information) and information in other form is acquired from it (output information). This process of conversion of raw material into the refined form is nothing but the data processing. Data processing may be4 defined as the process of transforming data (raw material of information) into useful information by the computer.
