Computer science is the study of the storage, transformation and transfer of information. The field encompasses both the theoretical study of algorithms (including their design, efficiency and application) and the practical problems involved in implementing them in terms of computer software and hardware.
Computer science has its roots primarily in the fields of electrical engineering (i.e., electronics), mathematics and linguistics. It is still a relatively young field, mainly because it was only about a half century ago that electronics technology became sufficiently advanced to allow the construction of even primitive electronic computing devices.

Get the Political Science mug.ECS is the absolutely most boring class imaginable. It is taught by a woman named Ms Woster who looks like she has come back from the dead, and she literally sucks the life out from you like a dementor. The class causes many of the students to have suicidal thoughts because they want to escape the pain. The class is one of the many required tortuous classes at Ursuline Academy of Death. If a student survives the school, she is most likely able to survive the harsh real world.
