Many people think of computer science as just software programming like Python. However, interestingly, computer science involves discussion among computer scientists. A computer scientists sitting in one place typing bunch of codes is not a great computer scientist. A great scientist is the one who can do coding well and discuss his or her idea with other computer scientists. In order to express his or her idea, it is necessary for him or her to have great communication and cooperation skills. Before coming to U of T, I always thought of computer science as a simple software programming. However, during the first, I took CSC 165 where I learnt mathematical expressions and logistics in computer science. This enabled me to widen my perspective on computer science.
This is my first SLOG for CSC 148, but I've written several SLOG posts for CSC 165. Writing SLOG helped me review the course materials covered. I believe writing SLOG posts even helped me with CSC 165 final exam. So I am confident that I can keep up writing SLOG posts just like what I did for CSC 165.
Computer scientists need to write in order to improve the presentation of their ideas and thoughts. I strongly agree with this and I am happy to write SLOG for CSC 148. During the last term, one of my friends who is major in commerce told me that computer science is all about coding. I disagreed with him suggesting that computer science involves lots of discussion just like a businessman. I look forward to writing various interesting SLOG posts during this term.
