Computer Science (3): Computer Architecture - Logic Circuits, Von Neumann Architecture, CPU, Assembly

No matter which country or university you go to...
The first major subject in a computer-related department is computer basics !

CS 101 (Computer Science 101), a course like Computer Fundamentals or Introduction to Computers , serves as a navigator for those who want to major in computer science as an academic or career field.

So, after finishing the lecture!

• 👉 You will understand the terminology, basic theories, and practical application cases used in computer-related subjects.
• 👉 Therefore, you can gain a foundation that will allow you to study computer science much more easily and systematically .

Q. What are the reviews of the paid lectures?

The evaluations of those who took the entire course, which was an external lecture on the same topic by a knowledge sharer, were as follows.

• The overall quality of the lectures was high, and they were very helpful in developing a broad knowledge of computer engineering.
• It was very helpful to be able to systematically learn the overall content of computers without being too overwhelming.
• Although the content was very extensive, the lecture was well-organized and focused on the key points, so I was able to understand it quickly.
• As a newbie to computers, I wanted to learn about the overall computer science, and this course perfectly met my needs. I really enjoyed it.

Q. Is it really necessary to take a basic computer science course? Wouldn't it be sufficient to immediately take a programming language or computer application/advanced major course?

Those who wish to major in computer science will need to invest a significant amount of time from now on. Wouldn't it be much easier to play if you could briefly review "hints" and "strategy guides" when starting a fairly complex game that requires a significant investment of time to complete?

This "Computer Basics" course is essentially a "hint" and "strategy guide." You'll start the game knowing which continents you'll visit during the long voyage ahead, what treasures you'll find, and what monsters you'll encounter. Of course, that doesn't mean the game will be boring. It's just enough to make it more enjoyable!

Q. Can non-majors also take the course?

When non-majors study computer science, the first subjects they should take are courses like this one, such as computer basics, computer introduction, and introductory computer courses.

Q. Will it help me with computer skills, studying for certifications, and preparing for interviews?

Of course, it's also great for preparing for various exams and interviews. However, it covers a broader range of topics and provides more detailed information than courses designed for qualification exams like "Computer Proficiency," "Word Processing," and "General Computers," as well as written and oral interview preparation. The lectures, taken as a whole, are considerably longer than those offered for exam preparation. Specifically, it's ideal for learning fundamental principles and broad background knowledge, rather than simply memorizing them.

Q. Is there a special reason for setting a course deadline?

The reason for setting a deadline for the course is that, given the nature of the computer field, the course content is likely to become outdated after that amount of time.
By then, I'll be back with a new lecture. 😄

Q. Are there subtitles in the video?

While some class videos include subtitles, most do not. Videos may be replaced without notice if new subtitles are produced.

• This lecture is the third lecture in the "Computer Fundamentals" series, which consists of a total of seven lectures.
• This series does not require any separate practice.
• We provide the PPT used in the lecture as a PDF file according to the learning content.
• No special player knowledge is required. However, general knowledge and practical experience are required, as well as basic PC/smartphone experience, such as the ability to perform simple word processing tasks and a basic understanding of Excel.
