A primer for the novice. Basic computer concepts.

A computer is nothing more than an organized bureaucratic structure that allows one to perform a large number of very simple acts by the issuance of a few simple commands. It has the disadvantage of being a machine and, at the present time, being incapable of interpretive behavior. Such machines can only follow orders blindly. On the other hand, the computer is capable of performing simple tasks at lightning speed. Learning how to take advantage of this ability is no more difficult than learning to reduce a Colle's fracture. Buy a book, obtain some "clinical material" (a computer), and start experimenting. Learn from your mistakes; it only takes time and interest--not genius.

Computer Literacy↗

Pitfalls in the use of clinical algorithms.

The algorithm is a very useful tool in medical practice. Like any other tool, it has advantages and disadvantages. The wise physician avoids a modality until he has learned how to use it. The same should be true of algorithms. Obtain some computer primers that explain the writing of algorithms. Experiment with algorithms of your own creation. When you reach the level where you can easily write your own algorithms, you are ready to use those written by others, making any modifications necessary to suit your own philosophy and experience.
