Computer science, a relatively young field, has evolved dramatically since the mid-1940s. Early programs were small, written by individuals, and focused on technical problems with numerical input and output. However, modern applications are large, developed by teams over extended periods, and address everyday life issues like online banking and e-commerce. The 1960s saw a software crisis as programming techniques lagged behind software complexity, leading to late deliveries, errors, and unadaptable programs.
