How Does a Computer Work?
0 and 1: what are they doing in my computer?
Logic gates, the basic building blocks of every computer system, from smartwatches to mainframes, even neural networks cannot do without them. What's behind them? What are logic gates? How do logic gates work? And how do you build an entire computer from logic gates?
This video is a response to
Sebastian Lague: • Exploring How Computers Work
His video inspired me and originally I wanted to ask if I could create a German dubbed version of his video. But I wanted to shorten it a bit and add some of my own thoughts. Now it is what it is, and I'm not sure if it passes as an original work. But Sebastian says:
"I enjoyed the video, nice work! Don’t worry about the similarities, I think it stands well on its own."
