Computer science has much less to do with actual programming than it has to do with algorithms and data structures and and boolean algebra and software design and software engineering. Entrepreneurs? Where does it say that?

What if you want to open a business related to computer science .. that's where the word Entrepreneurs fills in ...

What exactly do you have to know for Computer Science, in Universities?..
If you don't mind, could you list all the topic, that I really have to know for Computer Science,

Thanks,
JQK
