商品描述

This book introduces computational thinking, defining computational thinking as "thinking like a computer scientist." Chapter 1 explains the origins of computer science and its unique worldview by contrasting it with fields like physics and mathematics, while also addressing its relationship with programming, deep learning, and generative AI. Chapter 2 describes the practical benefits of applying computational thinking in the real world, introducing the essential concepts of abstraction, modeling, and virtualization. Chapter 3 introduces another essential concept, meta, and its related idea of self-reference. Chapter 4 introduces computational thinking perspectives in everyday activities such as cooking. Chapter 5 shares the findings regarding computational thinking from the perspective of a cognitive scientist with no background in computer science

This book is accessible to anyone interested in computational thinking, regardless of prior knowledge.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書介紹了計算思維,將計算思維定義為「像計算機科學家一樣思考」。第一章通過將計算機科學與物理學和數學等領域進行對比,解釋了計算機科學的起源及其獨特的世界觀,同時也探討了它與程式設計、深度學習和生成式人工智慧的關係。第二章描述了在現實世界中應用計算思維的實際好處,介紹了抽象、建模和虛擬化等基本概念。第三章介紹了另一個基本概念——元(meta),以及與之相關的自我參照(self-reference)思想。第四章介紹了在日常活動(如烹飪)中計算思維的視角。第五章則從一位沒有計算機科學背景的認知科學家的角度分享了有關計算思維的研究發現。

本書對任何對計算思維感興趣的人都很友好,無論其先前的知識水平如何。
