computers
You'll understand that a computer is a machine that processes data using instructions, and recognize the basic flow of input, processing, and output.
You'll distinguish between physical computer parts (hardware) and programs/instructions (software), and see how they work together.
You'll learn how computers represent all information using 1s and 0s, and understand why binary is the foundation of digital computing.
You'll discover how CPUs execute instructions, explore the Von Neumann bottleneck, and recognize the real-world constraints on computation speed.
