  1. The truth is that computer science isn’t really about the

    computer. The computer is just a tool to help you see ideas more clearly. You can see the moon and stars without a telescope, smell the flowers without a fluoroscope, have fun without a funoscope!
  2. You can also play with computer science without a computer.

    IDEAS are the real stuff of computer science.
  3. Words to Numbers - Binary • Computers store info by

  4. Grace Hopper - “Amazing Grace” • A Computer Scientist that

    made the 1st Compiler or Translator so computers could understand the language programmers write code. • She was also an Admiral.
