The term computing is a neologism proposed in 1962 by Philippe Dreyfus to characterize the automatic processing of information. So, IT deals with two complementary aspects: the immaterial programs (software, software) which describe a processing to be carried out and the machines (hardware, hardware) which execute this processing.

The objective of this course is to teach you to design an ordered sequence of instructions which indicates the procedure to follow for
to solve a series of equivalent problems, as well as to characterize their validity, their robustness, their reusability, their complexity or their efficiency in a programming language understandable by the computer.

As Abelson et al. said, each computer program is a model, forged by the mind, of a real or imaginary process. These processes, which arise from human experience and thought, are innumerable and complex in their details. At any time, they can only be partially understood. They are rarely modeled in a satisfactory way in our computer programs. Although our programs are sets
symbols carefully carved, mosaics of intertwined functions, they never stop evolving. We modify them as our perception of the model deepens, expands and generalizes, until reaching a metastable equilibrium at the borders of another possible modeling of the problem. The joyful intoxication that accompanies computer programming comes from the continual back and forth between the human mind and the computer, the mechanisms expressed by programs and the explosion of new visions that they bring. If art translates our dreams, the computer realizes them in the form of programs.

B- PERSONALIZED TUTORING: LEARNING HOW TO REASON
Machine learning and artificial intelligence become much more accessible when mathematics, algorithms, Python code, data, and real-world applications are clearly connected.

My lessons help you move beyond simply copying code or using models as “black boxes.” You will learn how to define the problem correctly, prepare the data, select an appropriate algorithm, understand how it works, train and evaluate the model, diagnose errors, improve performance, and interpret results rigorously and responsibly.

Each lesson is personalized according to your current level, mathematical background, programming experience, dataset, university work, research project, interview preparation, or professional objective. We begin by identifying your existing knowledge, software environment, expected outcomes, and main conceptual or technical difficulties. We then establish a structured learning plan.

The first lesson combines a discussion of your background, objectives, and tutoring needs; an initial assessment of your current knowledge; personalized planning and organization of future sessions; and a short trial lesson to determine the most effective learning approach.

A typical session may include conceptual explanation, development of mathematical intuition, live coding, guided implementation, model evaluation, technical problem solving, and a concise summary of the next steps.

You may work with your own dataset, university assignment, research project, or professional problem, provided that confidential information is handled appropriately. I can also provide structured examples and datasets suited to your level.

My goal is not simply to help you run an algorithm. It is to help you understand why it is appropriate, how it learns from data, how to evaluate it correctly, why it may fail, and how to build a reliable, interpretable, and scientifically rigorous solution.
