Computer science to the Point: Computer Science for Life Sciences Students and Other Non-Computer Scientists

This textbook is aimed at students of non-specialist courses with computer science components. Special emphasis is placed on the so-called life sciences, such as medical technology, rescue engineering, biotechnology, environmental engineering or process engineering. The textbook is suitable for readers in study and practice who want to get an introduction to computer science. The special feature of this book is the problem-based approach, as well as the exercises designed according to different taxonomy levels.

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Boris Tolg teaches computer science, mathematics and simulation in medicine and heads the SIMLab laboratory in the Department of Medical Technology at HAW Hamburg.
