Well, ok, and I misread your post, thank you for clarification. But you've employed a straw man, because no one has claimed anything about historical examples of programming to make claims about how old computer science is. What I did instead (in the GGGGP comment?) was give ancient examples of computer science to show how old it must be, at a minimum. Now, of course, there was no CS department in a university 5000 years ago. Nevertheless, computer science was performed in ancient Sumer, and we know this because we found their abacuses.
