Course summary

Computing science is wide-ranging: from programming and engineering large software systems, to the design and evaluation of human–computer interfaces, algorithms, computer and network systems, artificial intelligence, information retrieval and big data systems. Physics is the experimental and theoretical study of matter and energy and their interactions, ranging from the domain of elementary particles, through nuclear and atomic physics, to the physics of solids and, ultimately, to the origins of the universe itself.
