When I was going to school for computers I was blown away at how computers seemed to mimic life. What gives life to computers is the same functions that we use in our own lives only digitized. Computers do what we do only faster and with much more organization and structure. You could learn alot just studying how to program. I was looking at some applicant tracking systems the other day while I was on a team of programmers designing an upgrade to an older program and I was once again blown away at how much these programs can do!
