Computer science is the study of computing devices, algorithms and their application in solving problems. It covers a broad range of topics, including artifical intelligence, networking, graphics, game development, algorithm design and analysis, mathematics modeling, and many more.

Background
Computer scientists apply their knowledge to solve both practical and theoretical problems. While there is a significant amount of overlap, computer science is typically distinguished from software engineering in that the former is more concerned with furthering theoretical knowledge and describing and solving abstract mathematical and physical problems, whereas the latter is more concerned with learning for the sake of solving practical problems.Computer science has its origins in mathematics and various engineering disciplines. While many calculating machines (such as the abacus and antikythera mechanism) are hundreds or thousands of years old, it is typically accepted that computer science was not actually born as a distinct field until the 1900s. While Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace are among several early contributers to the field, the English mathematician, Alan Mathison Turing is considered to be the father of computer science.
