Actual differance between computer engineering and IT

CE (computer science) describe what is the science behind computer..

how computer is engineered. include history, present and future of computer. including its application and lot many things.

while IT is some thing different...

it is study of technology..
describe following things..

1. How to collect information from various source....
2. How to store information in such a way that it can be back in desire manner.
3. How to re-distribute information in such way that it fulfill the requirement.

and by chance computer is involve in the all activity.
so, its look like computer and IT both are same.


but fact is that,
CS is a study of machine..
IT is a study of information gathering, storing and distributing.

now a days computer is main device that is used in such activity so IT very similar to computer science.
if in future any device will invented that will betterly fulfill IT requirement(information gathering, storing and distributing). than i am sure that IT people are going to learn that device.

Write a Code...... if u can
write a optimum c/c++ program to generate like bellow...

sequence may change to display those number.


Hint It having 10! mean near by 840 M combination.
