About this listen

This Episode provides an introduction to computational thinking, outlining key principles such as abstraction, decomposition, and algorithmic thinking. It explains algorithms as a set of instructions for problem-solving, offering various examples from daily life and computer science. The episode also introduces structure diagrams as a tool for visualizing how large problems are broken down into smaller, manageable sub-problems, a process central to decomposition. Ultimately, the text aims to teach readers how to approach and solve complex problems by applying these fundamental computational concepts.
