THE CONNECTION BETWEEN MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE

Abstract

Currently, the flow of information is constantly increasing. The development of science, its transformation into a direct productive force, into the property of every person, is accompanied by an increase in information, because the inexhaustible source that feeds science is the world around us, the thirst for knowledge is unquenchable. The process of cognition is endless, the process of developing new knowledge, obtaining new information. The ability to easily and quickly navigate the ever-increasing flow of scientific and technical information on their own and related specialties, and make extensive use of the capabilities of new computer technology is one of the most important qualities of university graduates. The most important task of our time is to receive, process, transmit, store, present and use information. Information becomes a strategic resource of society. The chain of education is the preparation of a person for a full life in an information society. Therefore, there was a need for mass computer development. The ability to use computer technology in solving professional and educational tasks is now rightfully equated with second literacy. This requires each person to have basic knowledge about the internal structure of a computer, its purpose and capabilities, ways of interacting with a personal computer; the ability to simulate various tasks himself, to compile algorithms and operating programs in at least one programming language. Computer science is closely related to mathematics. Quantitative relations and forms are characteristic of all objects and phenomena of the material world, so we can talk about the universality of mathematical methods and methods of thinking. Mathematics has an accurate symbolic language that allows it to reveal both its own sphere of knowledge and the sphere of knowledge of other sciences, including computer science. In the modern world, the role of mathematics has increased significantly.
