Why computer science?
Nowadays computers are used to perform all manner of tasks across every kind of industry. Children are taught early on in school how to use computers but not how they work! By understanding the fundamental principles behind how a computer works, we can find new ways to use them effectively.
How to make
Learn about the basics of computer architecture and build your own PC!
