- List of computing topics
Originally, the word "computing" was synonymous with counting and calculating, and the science and
technology of mathematicalcalculation s. Today, "computing" means usingcomputer s and other computing machines. It includes their operation and usage, the electrical processes carried out within the computing hardware itself, and the theoretical concepts governing them (computer science )."See also:"
