2 - Seems to be made from metal, looks like a computer you would see to make AI or somthing bigger and more complex like that.

1 - All computers have the potential to make life more efficient.

2- its the same because its called a computer, and uses similar algorithms computers today use

3-all computers were created with the intention of making tasks quicker

  • its much larger

  • Not convenient

  • Takes multiple people to work

  • 2 ways it the same

  • Its a learning tool

  • Both can be used to communicate

  • 1 thing you think is true of all computers

  • It's placed in the category of technology

  • 1. it’s larger

  • 2. it’s older

  • 3. it’s less organized


    • 1. both are computers

    • 2. both have and store data


    • 1. all computers are technology

  • computers today are not overly complex, slow, or rely on dial up to function (oh how time was wasted in the 90's).

  • they are electric, and a device of technology.

  • they are metal

    • No monitor

    • No keyboard

    • No mouse


    2 similarities:

    • Requires electricity

    • Operated by humans


    1: Algorithms

    Takes up a lot of space, No screen, Multiple different parts

    2 similarities:

    Needs energy, has buttons

    1: used by people

Being completely analog, it also relies on a much larger amount of buttons for operation rather than screens, and makes use of an excessive number of wires by modern standards.

    Both archaic and modern computers can be used to operate other physical objects, such as doors, and ultimately make complex problem-solving easier.

    All computers to date, no matter how powerful, are reliant on human operation just as humans rely on computers.
