Here are
some key terminologies often encountered in computer science:
1. **Algorithm**: A step-by-step procedure or formula for solving a problem, often used for
data processing or mathematical calculations.
2. **Data Structure**: A way of organizing and storing data to facilitate access and modification.
Examples include arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs.
6. **Machine Learning**: A subset of AI that enables systems to learn and improve from
experience without being explicitly programmed, typically using statistical techniques.
7. **Data Science**: The interdisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes,
algorithms, and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data.
8. **Operating System (OS)**: Software that manages computer hardware resources and
provides services for computer programs. Examples include Windows, macOS, Linux, etc.
12. **Compiler**: A program that translates source code written in a high-level programming
language into machine code that a computer's processor can execute.
13. **Debugging**: The process of finding and fixing errors (bugs) in computer software to
ensure it behaves as intended.
14. **Interface**: The point of interaction between components, systems, or users, facilitating
communication and operation.
15. **Cybersecurity**: Measures taken to protect computer systems and networks from
unauthorized access, data breaches, and cyberattacks.
These are just a few fundamental terms in computer science. The field continues to evolve
rapidly, with new concepts and technologies emerging regularly.
