Programming (Computer Science)

Programming in computer science is the process of creating and writing instructions—called code—that tell a computer how to perform specific tasks. These instructions are written using programming languages, which are formal systems of communication between humans and machines. The code directs the computer to process data, perform calculations, or manage systems efficiently. Essentially, programming is designing and building the logical steps to solve problems or automate processes, enabling computers to carry out a wide range of functions in applications, websites, software, and more.
