About

Computer science is what attracted my attention since I was a child when, instead of playing video games, I tried to understand how they were designed and programmed.

“I am convinced that computer science has a lot in common with physics. Both deal with how the world works on a fairly fundamental level. The difference, of course, is that while in physics you have to understand how the world is made, in computer science you create it. Within the confines of the computer, you are the creator. You control - at least potentially - everything that happens to you. If you are good enough, you can be a god. On a small scale. " - Linus Torvald
