Computercraft is one of the crafts that was established on Pern during the Ninth Pass after the discovery of AIVAS. Its major crafthall is located in Landing.

Description[]

A detailed description of the Craft on the basis of the The Dragonlover's Guide to Pern

The informal genesis of the Computerer Hall came when Aivas initiated the construction of remote computer terminals using the components left behind by the Ancient Timers in the Catherine Caves. The new craft was formed, under the aegis of the Smithcraft, to pass on that knowledge to as many apt pupils as possible so that the Ancients' precious knowledge wouldn’t be lost again.

As soon as more materials wore available, the Computerers constructed terminals for the Healcrcraft classrooms in the Harper Hall. When the Smithcraft was able to duplicate the components, the Computerers intended to place terminals wherever one was wanted. Harper Piemur was placed in charge of teaching in the Crafthall, aided by his mate, Mastersmith Jancis.
