A computer's CPU is made of silicon with transistors representing 1s and 0s in binary, while logic gates use Boolean algebra for calculations. Programming involves converting code into machine code for execution, organizing data efficiently with structures like arrays, and using loops for iteration and recursive functions for problem-solving.
Insights
- CPUs in computers are made of silicon with tiny switches called transistors that represent 1s and 0s, forming bits and bytes, allowing for information storage in binary.
- Programming languages like Python convert code into machine code for execution, utilizing variables, data structures, loops, and recursion to efficiently manipulate data, while algorithms are analyzed for time and space complexity using Big O notation.
