Computers can be understood as assemblies of simple components from "summary" of Code by Charles Petzold
In the everyday world, complexity often arises from the interaction of simple components. These simple components, when combined in the right way, can create incredibly intricate systems that perform complex tasks. It is this concept that lies at the heart of understanding computers.
When we look at a computer, we see a machine that can perform a wide range of tasks with seemingly endless capabilities. However, at its core, a computer is made up of simple components that work together in harmony to achieve these tasks. By breaking down the computer into its basic components, we can begin to understand how it functions.
At the most fundamental level, a computer is made up of basic building blocks such as transistors, which act as switches that can be turned on or off. These transistors are then organized into logic gates, which perform basic operations like AND, OR, and NOT. ...
