Is Computer Science STEM – The Link Between the Two

STEM Education Guide

However, one thing that’s often overlooked is computer science education, an incredibly essential subject and skill in today’s digital era. While the science aspect (chemistry, biology, and physics) and mathematics (calculus and algebra) is a breeze to figure out, the engineering and technology aspects are less straightforward.

Charting a Course for “Complexity”: Metamodeling, Ruliology and More

Stephen Wolfram

But it really wasn’t physics, or computer science, or math, or biology, or economics, or any known field. The idea not of solving equations, but instead of setting up computational rules that could be explicitly run to represent and reproduce things in the world. What is that science? But at least it would have a home.

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

Chemistry / Molecular Biology. In thinking about chemistry we can make a much more concrete multicomputational model: the tokens are actual individual molecules (represented say in terms of bonds) and the events are reactions between them. (As Perhaps not for chemistry as it’s done today. Does this matter, though?

Expression Evaluation and Fundamental Physics

Stephen Wolfram

Such abstract functions could be used both “symbolically” to represent things, and explicitly to “compute” things. All sorts of (often ornate) formalism was developed in mathematical logic, with combinators arriving in 1920 , and lambda calculus in 1935.

How To Make Someone Not Hate Math

ED Surge

For some reason, it’s a common belief that everyone who goes into fields such as math, economics or computer science is brilliant, probably in part because those fields are financially rewarding, Miller-Cotto says. But a case of “senioritis” caused her to drop out of high school calculus. She describes herself as a “math brain.”
