computational thinking (CT)

definition

Set of problem-solving methods that involve expressing problems and their solutions in ways that a computer could also execute. It involves automation of processes, but also using computing to explore, analyze, and understand processes (natural and artificial).

Computational design is the application of computational strategies to the design process. While designers traditionally rely on intuition and experience to solve design problems, computational design aims to enhance that process by encoding design decisions using a computer language. The goal isn't to document the final result necessarily, but rather the steps required to create that result

the work of a computational designer means taking a problem and using software to generate solutions to automate aspects of the creation process
