And to begin with, what is computer science?

If you look up the concept in a dictionary, you will most likely find a definition according to which computing and
informatics are practically the same thing.
For example, the dictionary of the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language states that informatics is the "set of scientific
knowledge and techniques that make possible the automatic processing of information by means of computers".
Moreover, the same dictionary notes that "informática" is the word used in America for "computation".

So, computing is computing?

Use the "Justify" option

Yes, but it is more than that. The definition proposed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural
Organisation (UNESCO) is much broader, referring to informatics as the science of information processing systems and
their economic, political and socio-cultural implications.

The concept of information is very recent and also very simple. It was developed in the 1940s by the American

mathematician Claude Shannon, to refer to everything that is present in a message or signal when a

communication process is established between a sender and a receiver. Thus, when two people talk, they

exchange information; when you watch a film, you receive information; moreover, when you taste a biscuit,

your sense of taste collects information about the taste and consistency of the morsel. Information can then be

found and sent in many forms, provided that the receiver can interpret it.

Processing information involves storing, organising and, very importantly, transmitting it. In general terms, we can

say that there are two pillars of computer science: computing and communication. In other words, what we know

today as computer science brings together many of the techniques and machines that man has developed

throughout history to support and enhance his memory, thinking and communication capacities.

Use of the rule

The rule will allow us to mark the beginning and end of paragraphs and the first lines of
paragraphs.

When Robinson Crusoe marked a line on the trunk of a tree


for each day he spent on his desert island, he did it so as not to lose
count, that is, to support his memory.

What is something 2 centimetres wide, 5 millimetres high, and found in your alarm clock, Voyager,
traffic lights or cars, in your microwave oven, at ATMs, at the bank or in any clinical analysis laboratory?

Exactly, it is the microchip, perhaps the most famous computing device, and although we sometimes
don't realise it, this tiny component made up of millions of microscopic circuits and connected through modern
telecommunications, is in many of the devices we use and is the main actor behind a large number of the
actions we perform on a daily basis.
