Computational Thinking with Spreadsheet

*************************************************

Computers are incredibly fast, accurate, and stupid. Human beings are incredibly slow, inaccurate, and brilliant. Together they are powerful beyond imagination.”

                                                                                                   (Albert Einstein)

"It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change."

 (Charles Darwin.)

 Computational Thinking is the type of thinking a person does when making use of human intelligence and computer intelligence to solve problems and accomplish tasks . This term was coined by Jeannette M. Wing, President's Professor of Computer Science,  Carnegie Mellon University, USA.  With a funding from Microft, Professor Jeannette even established a centre for  ‘Computational thinking’ in the University. Many people consider, Carnegie Mellon  as the Mecca of computer science and computational thinking.
