Features: To lay a foundation for liberal arts students in higher education in terms of qualities, abilities, and knowledge in information and computer science, the State Education Commission has currently included computer basic courses as compulsory subjects for liberal arts majors. In 1995, the State Education Commission's Computer Curriculum Teaching Guidance Group for Liberal Arts Majors formulated basic requirements for computer basic courses for all majors, including "Computer Application Basics" and "Computer Application Information Systems." This book is written based on the spirit of these basic requirements. The content of this book includes computer fundamentals, DOS disk operating system, and the use of Windows, Word, and Excel. In the 21st century, humanity will enter an information-based society, where the traditional ways of working and learning will be broken. To adapt to the informatization of society, new requirements are being raised for the knowledge, abilities, and qualities of students in higher education. Whether for students in science and engineering or for those in humanities, politics, law, linguistics, economics, and management, new requirements are being raised, especially in terms of knowledge, abilities, and qualities in information technology and computer technology. In summary, it is required that higher education students must possess basic knowledge in information and computer science; have the ability to use computers to solve teaching, research, and daily-life problems in their respective fields; have a computer consciousness; be able to master and use computers for innovative work; and improve work and learning efficiency through the use of computers in daily work and study, thereby making greater contributions to society.
