A **computer** is an electronic device. Therefore, every piece of information stored in it is in the form of 0s and 1s where 0 means a low voltage and 1 means a high voltage. It also means everything in the digital world comprises 0s and 1s, including:

* Documents
* Pictures
* Movies
* Websites
* Games

In short, any application we use on a computer or mobile device is made of 0s and 1s. Programs control and create all these sequences of 0s and 1s. The tools that help create documents, movies, and games are all programs. In this course, we'll learn to develop programs.
