10.1 Understanding Tuples

Explore the nature of programming and how programming a computer is different than using a computer. 

In this lecture we learn abut how the computer processes and stores programs. We learn about the CPU, Memory, Storage and Input / Output devices are brought together to write a program. 

We look at how writing programs is just another form of communication. Instead of communicating with another person, we are communicating our ideas to a computer. 

In this episode, we'll look at the very basics of type systems and their enforcement. We'll discuss strongly and weakly typed languages. After that, we'll dig into different enforcement strategies - runtime with dynamic typing and compile-time with static typing.
