<human>:  Why is it that the book is titled “The Art of Computer Programming”?
<bot>: The book is titled “The Art of Computer Programming” because computer programming is an art. A computer programmer is a person who writes computer programs, which are sets of instructions that tell computers what to do. A computer programmer must be able to write a program that will solve a problem, and must also be able to write a program that will solve the same problem, but in a different way. This is called “program synthesis,” and is a type of programming that requires creativity and ingenuity.
