What Are Computers?

• Computers are powerful tools for (generalized)
  computation
• Numerical analysis, database, document
  processing, control, gaming,
• Computers are fast, precise, and highly flexible.
• Complementary roles between man and machine
• Human being Thinking, innovating,
• Machine Data processing, computation,

Computer Programming

• What is programming?
• Computers are quick, reliable, and flexible.
• The flexibility of computers is a result of the
  idea "stored-program control".
• We instruct computer to perform tasks via
  programming - the writing of computer control
  programs.
• Windows programming is the writing of computer
  programs running within Windows environments.

Computer Programming (cont)

• Programming paradigms
• Hardwired control, in contrast to flexible
  stored-program control
• Machine code
• Assembly language
• High-level language
• Macro of packages, extensions to designed
  functionality to fit customer's need
• Script of operating systems, such as batch files,
  shell script, ...
• Script of virtual machines, such as Netscape
  Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer are
  virtual machine for JavaScript.
