Computational Thinking - A Primer for Programmers and Data Scientists by G Venkatesh & Madhavan Mukund:-
About Book - by G Venkatesh & Madhavan Mukund:
How do we introduce computing to a lay person? This was the question that
confronted us when we volunteered to offer such a course in the foundation year
of the online BSc degree in Programming and Data Science at IIT Madras. We
searched for a suitable book or any material to use, but found nothing useful. Our
conception of what needs to be taught in the course seemed to differ widely from
what is currently on offer. We figured that "computational thinking" means differ-
ent things to different people. For some it is just another name for programming
in a suitable language. Those with some knowledge of computer science see it as
the study of algorithms (as distinct from the programs used to implement them).
Then there are those who equate it to solving logical or mathematical puzzles
using computers.
