"Computer Science is an engineering science, an empirical science of the artificial rather than the natural world, so in a category not allowed for in the standard division (Newell and Simon 1976). Like other empirical engineering sciences, it conducts experiments and constructs theories to explain the results of them."
Leslie Burkholder, In: NEWTON-SMITH, W. H. (Edited by), A Companion to the Philosophy of Science.
Science is to computer science as hydrodynamics is to plumbing. (Prof. M. Thump)
