Classical Computing Key Terminologies
Bits
Bits are the fundamental units of Information in a computer. Transistors work on the principal of Bits. 0 being OFF and 1 being ON Bits based transistors can make building a complex system easier. Transistors hence are called as electrical switches of Computers
Gates
Gate manipulate bits.
NOT Gate:
AND Gate:
Circuits
Circuit is a sequence of Gates. It is formed using combination of multiple gates providing complex outputs compared to single Gates
Full Adder Circuit of 2 Inputs is a circuit used to add two numbers
Example: (2 + 3) using Full Adder Circuit
Algorithms & Protocols
A&P are the agreed-upon steps computers used to solve problems using decision thinking.
