 Talk:String (computer science) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Also, I think the usage in computing theory could be expanded in its own paragraph: one starts with a finite alphabet, then considers all finite sequences consisting of letters from that alphabet (including the empty string) and defines concatentation of strings.
Maybe this article should be moved to String (computer science) or something, and this page be turned into a disambiguation page.
I propose renaming this article to Character string (computer science).

 Problems in Computer Science
In computer science, we will focus on the second definition of a problem being a task.
We encode the input instance x, y, and z as b(x);b(y);b(z) using the input alphabet {0,1,;}.
Thus, this general framework of the language recognition problem actually presents a framework for studying which problems can be solved by computers.

 Computer software - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computer science and software engineering, computer software is all information processed by computer systems, programs and data.
Computer software (or simply software) refers to any of the various programs by which a computer controls aspects of its operations, such as those for translating data from one form to another, as contrasted with hardware, which is the physical equipment comprising the installation.
Computer software is so called in contrast to computer hardware, which encompasses the physical interconnections and devices required to store and execute (or run) the software.

 howard rheingold's tools for thought
The idea that people could use computers to amplify thought and communication, as tools for intellectual work and social activity, was not an invention of the mainstream computer industry or orthodox computer science, nor even homebrew computerists; their work was rooted in older, equally eccentric, equally visionary, work.
Human information processors have a very small short term memory, however, which means that all computers and no humans can extract the square roots of thousand-digit numbers in less than a second, no computers and all humans can recognize a familiar face in a crowd.
For most of recorded history, the interactions of humans with their media have been primarily nonconversational in the sense that marks on paper, paint on walls, even "motion" pictures and television do not change in response to the viewer's wished.

A combination of the translation kind of operation and the selection kind is an operation that selects not one but several members of the input.
In other words, an operation computes some value that is then used as the input to some other procedure.

 99:1 Newsletter on Philosophy and Computers - Event Handlers - Levey
Though twentieth-century discoveries have reduced the scope of what is thought to be possible for computers and formal languages to accomplish, modern computer science very much falls in the lineage of Leibniz.
All possible human thoughts were, he believed, ultimately composed out of simple conceptual elements, and the universal characteristic was itself to contain basic terms corresponding to those simple elements—"an alphabet of all human thought"—from which precise statements of thoughts could be produced by proper combination of the elements.
It was part of Leibniz’s vision that there might be machines which could solve the most pressing difficulties in human thought, whether in esoteric or practical affairs—ranging from problems in mathematics to moral, political, and legal disputes.

 DotsPlus® Braille
DotsPlus® Braille is a set of tactile fonts that permits virtually any computer document written in a language based on the roman alphabet to be printed in a form readable by a blind person.
The vast majority of characters that appear in more complex literature (math, science, computer programs, accents on foreign characters in English literature, etc.) are graphic symbols shaped much like the corresponding print symbols.
Literary braille and the proposed unified braille code represent numbers by "number mode" - a device that cannot be used as a font and is very clumsy in advanced math/science.

A given automaton has a finite set of states, a finite set of input symbols (its alphabet) and outputs, and rules that specify what happens for a given input.
Deterministic finite automata have applications not only in theoretical computer science but also in many automated devices, from garage door openers to traffic lights.
His computer science project dealt with the application of automata theory to methods of testing the divisibility of numbers not only in base 10 but also in other bases.
