1515As computer scientists, we will combine some of the best features of
1616mathematics, engineering, and natural science. Like mathematicians, we
1717will use formal languages to communicate our ideas. Like engineers, we
18- will design complex systems by assembling components into systems and
19- evaluating tradeoffs among alternatives. Like scientists, we will

2323The single most important skill for a computer scientist is problem-solving.
2424Problem solving is a skill that involves formulating problems, thinking
2525creatively about solutions, and expressing a solution clearly and accurately. As
2626it turns out, the process of learning to program is an excellent opportunity to
27- practice problem-solving skills. That is why this chapter is called * The Way of the Program * .
