Learning to Program

Using Your Computer

Computers will do whatever you want—you just have to know how to ask. The computer you own right now can do things that no one has even dreamed of yet. But most computers aren’t used to their full potential. They do only the things that the software vendors tell them they can do. When I say “using your computer,” I don’t intend to teach you how to use a mouse, open a file, and print a document; you will begin to use a computer as a programmer uses a computer.
