Elements of Computing Systems

3 units

All computers are made up of 0s and 1s. However, the conceptual gap between the 0s and 1s and the day to day operation of modern computers is enormously wide. This fast-paced course aims to bridge the divide by starting with simple logic gates and building up the levels of abstraction until one can create games like Tetris. There is no specific programming language requirement, but some experience with programming is needed.
