Abstract
In preparing these lectures for delivery to an audience composed primarily of physicists, I have had to make certain assumptions about backgrounds in computing. I have assumed that each participant is familiar with at least one high level programming language, for example, FORTRAN and has written a number of programs in that language. I recognize that some participants will have had much more experience with computers than this and that some sections of the presentation will be considered by such people as a little elementary. However, I suspect that the assumption is true for the greater majority and I will therefore proceed on that basis.
