No offend but we need to undergo the step in a single chart and even in turing machine, there is a rules that we must follow in order to let S0 > S1. That is the most important part that student must understand. I've never said less theory, just it's more focus on practical even same concept in programming language, there were a theory in programming but who care, as long as you can build a program with the logic you understand. Sorry I'm not gonna list down all the thing that I can found inside my textbook and internet, it makes me kinda idiot. sweat.gif

Wrong also. The programming part is for you to demonstrate that you understand the theory aspect and are capable of implementing the theory into practice. If you're unable to understand the theory, then how on earth are you going to translate that into an algorithm to implement?

i think computer science is more on science and theoretical..
computer engineering is more on practical and application..

electronics engineering is study about electric circuits, like integrated circuit and maybe more on design..

Not correct either. Computer Engineering lies somewhere between Computer Science and Computer Engineering, where the electrical aspect of it is more geared towards computing hardware.

cs , ce...
~~

cs more one developing/understanding/creating new concepts and improving old ones ... from MY understanding... all science courses are that in their essence.

ce more one application/problem solving/fitting a solution/designing based on known laws or info to suit market demand and generating sales/profit.
do u see the difference?
=)...
Actually no. Computer Engineering is more towards hardware for computing. There's quite some involvement in R&D too, but more on the hardware side, or integrating with hardware.

i am company.
i want sumone to take of the machines, upgrade them if neccesary, keep it running, and deploying new better systems if customers request.
i choose a ce more..
You get system integrators or system engineers for that, not a computer engineer.

i am company
i have existing infrastructure. company is stable, now i want to up the ante and do R&D. create radically new stuff/software/algorythm/ etc...
i choose a cs more...
a simpler comparison
company needs a software to keep check of finances
a ce will  say use excel. i'll help u deploy it. fast and easiest way. (engineers=easy)
a cs will say, ok i'll write u one, more efficient than excel, and stabler, and have many many new features, then i'll try and see whether can i deploy it too.
You don't get a computer engineer for that either. A business analyst will be able to do that for you.

this is MY opinion. and no one elses.. correct me if their wrong.

ooo.... sorry .. haha.... so ce is more towards the low level hardware, the basics the fundamentals that make up the computer..

cs... more towards high level abstractions and algorythms?

edit:

then in wat positions/jobs/tasks do a cs and ce fit??  notworthy.gif  thank you i would want to know too.. ^^

a CE's role is rather similar to the role of an EE, just that the CE course is more specialized towards computing equipment and/or software that interacts with hardware at the low level.

CS is more versatile in the sense that the roles available are more widespread as compared to CE.

However this is not to say that somebody who did CE is not able to do the role of somebody who did CS, as this also depends a lot on what the person themselves learns on their own initiative too.
