Computers are the most complex machines that have ever been created. This book will tell you how they work and no technical knowledge is required. It explains the operation of a simple, but fully functional, computer in complete detail. Relays, which are explained, are used in the circuitry instead of transistors for simplicity, though transistors are mentioned. Did you ever wonder what a bit, a pixel, a latch, a word (of memory), a data bus, an address bus, a memory, a register, a processor, a timing diagram, a clock (of a processor), an instruction, or machine code is? Though most explanations of how computers work are a lot of analogies or require a background in electrical engineering, this book will tell you precisely what each of them is and how each of them works without requiring any previous knowledge of computers or electronics. This book starts out very simple and gets more complex as it goes along, but everything is explained. The diagram at the end of the Processor' chapter shows just how complex it gets.
