# Great Ideas in Computer Science

A beginner-friendly introduction to some of the greatest ideas in Computer Science. Ideas that shaped the whole field and helped create the information revolution.

## Table of Contents

> This is a work in progress. All of these ideas are subject to change.

1. The Computer

  - Turing machines

  - von Newman architecture

  

2. Programming languages

  - Recursion

3. Algorithms

  - Divide and conquer (I do not know in which section to put this idea, but it is an idea that is repeated in computer science, from a strategy in an algorithm to a good hierarchy of classes where responsibilities are assigned to each of the objects to solve specific subproblems and together form a solution to the problem initially posed.)
