Foundation of Computer Programming

Bys: Jarju, Aruna M. and Bukhari, Sahar

Computers have become an integral part of modern life. From the smartphones in our pockets to the servers that run the internet, computer systems are everywhere, helping us perform tasks, solve problems, and communicate across the globe. But what exactly is a computer, and how do we tell these machines what to do? The answer lies in programming - the craft of writing instructions that a computer can follow. This chapter provides a broad overview of what computers are, how they work at a fundamental level, and how programmers create software to make computers useful. We will discuss the components of a computer system, the nature of software and programs, the role of programming languages (with a focus on Python), and the process of developing simple programs.
