This book on the basics of computer science is written for school going children.
We have included all the basic
theoretical chapters of computer science including a little bit of designing
circuit concepts. The topic on networks covers almost the entire network
system. Programming approach has also been given for designing programs.
Basic topics covered are
operating system including the fundamental system designing, logic system,
number system used in computers, latest emerging technologies, and designing of
database system. As we are moving towards artificial system design for any
system, basic knowledge of AI is needed, and which is covered in this book.
Security is a key issue with which one should be aware of. Therefore, to a
certain extent, this topic is also covered.
