Electricity and binary code lie at the heart of computing from "summary" of Code by Charles Petzold
At the heart of computing is a fundamental concept that forms the very foundation of modern technology: electricity and binary code. These two seemingly different elements are actually intricately connected, working together to power the devices and systems that define our digital world.
Electricity, with its ability to flow through circuits and power electronic components, is the driving force behind every computer, smartphone, and tablet. Without electricity, these devices would be nothing more than inert objects, unable to perform the tasks we rely on them for. It is the electrical signals coursing through the intricate pathways of a computer that allow it to process information, execute commands, and display results.
But electricity alone is not enough to make computing possible. Enter binary code, a system of representing data using only two digits: 0 and 1. This may seem simplistic compared to the complex images, v...
