Lecture notes on Computational Thinking

I am working on some lecture notes that should become a book at some point. It is for a class on “Computational Thinking”, which I guess is just a fancy term for algorithms and data structures. I am only teaching a third of the class, so I need four topics for the autumn term. Those will be
