    How does a computer work?

    It's hard to underline the many principles a computer works from without sounding equivocal. Whether you break it down on a program's language, how the hardware proccesses it, how electronic signals differ in frequencies, etc. Though, I do admit I overlooked the original question. Too much...

    How does a computer work?

    Binary is based on the number two, aswell as the decimal system. On the far right you have single digits, then tenths, thousands, and so on. Say you have the number 1628. this could be represented as... 1= (10x10x10) 6=(6x10x10) 2=(2x10) 8=(8x1) Binary takes numbers and represents them in...

As one thing affects the next, the amount of "disorder" or variables is favored to grow. This is why it's becomes increasingly difficult to...
