Comment on Knuth: Computer Programming as an Art (1974)parent

Comments

I think Computer Science is the branch of maths that studies computing. Things like Computability, Complexity Theory and Information Theory are clearly branches of Maths, and Math is a science. Now, most CS courses are not about this: they are engineering courses at heart, that only use CS in the way a Civil Engineering course may us Physics.
