Exploring Computer

Science
Welcome to our Presentation!
 Introduction
We’re Pristine and Mathusa
We’re here today to share with you the exciting world of
computer science!
Computer science is like the magic behind everything we do on
computers. It's all about understanding how computers work,
how we can tell them what to do, and how they can help us
solve problems.
 What You Get To Study

Software Engineering: You get to design and construct amazing

programs, like games, apps, and even virtual worlds.

Data Science: You'll learn how to analyse large datasets to find trends,
make predictions, and solve problems in various industries.

Cybersecurity: You'll study techniques for detecting and preventing

hacking, viruses, and other online attacks.

Artificial Intelligence: You'll program computers to think like humans

and develop smart assistants, self-driving cars, and robots for the future

 Meet Pristine

I study Computer Networks

Engineering.
That means I learn about how computers talk to
each other and share information:
Discover ways to keep computers safe from
hackers and viruses.
Understand how to take care of networks.
Learn how information travel between
computers through the network.
 Meet Mathusa

I study Computer Science

That means I learn about how parts of the
computer work and solve problems:
Learn about algorithms, which are like recipes
telling the computer how to solve problems
step by step
Creating apps, websites, games and more by
writing code
Working in teams with different people to
combine our ideas and build software
Let’s Talk About Coding

Coding is like giving instructions to a computer in a

language it understands.

For example, messaging apps:

When you send a message, the app uses code to
encrypt the text, ensuring it's secure and private.

Without coding, these messaging

apps wouldn't be able to send or
receive messages securely over the
internet.
Another Example
Game developers use coding to bring their ideas to
life. They write lines of code to create the virtual
worlds, characters, and interactions within the game.

Coding defines
the rules and
mechanics of the
game. For example, how high a
character can jump, how
fast a car can drive, or how
strong a weapon is.
 Overall

Coding is like giving

instructions to computers.
It helps make our phones,
games, and websites work.
It's like writing a recipe for
computers to follow.
Coding helps us create
amazing things with
technology.
Robot Commands!
How To Play
In this game, you will become programmers and
robots.

The objective of the game is for you to

understand the concept of coding by the
programmers giving instructions (commands) to
their "robot" teammates.

This will provide a hands-on introduction to

coding concepts.
