  The aim of this book is to fill a void in the provision of textbooks on the science of computing for use by students at GCSE and Advanced Level GCSE examinations. It addresses most of the major topics common to the several syllabuses of the various examining boards. Hardware and software topics are both featured, but the emphasis in the early chapters is on the latter. A bibliography of source material is included to provide additional background reading for instructors. In cases where it is necessary to illustrate a point with a program fragment, this is usually done in BBC BASIC and where necessary, programming features are illustrated in PASCAL.
