I've always wondered: What is there about computer science that makes it a science? Generally, science studies nature and natural phenomena. Even the social sciences study the behavior of natural entities. Everything CS studies is artificial. The Art Department also studies man-made artificial things and how to make them, but is not granted the term "science." What elevates computer science to the level of a science and yet leaves the Art Dept behind?
