Etymology

The term 'computational' originated from the verb 'compute,' which dates back to the 1630s, meaning 'to calculate.' With the evolution of technology and the rise of computers in the 20th century, the adjective 'computational' emerged to describe processes or systems that involve calculations or data processing. The field of computational science and mathematics has grown significantly, incorporating elements of computer science, mathematics, and other disciplines to solve complex problems and analyze data.
