What is a Computer?

To uncover where and how computers first began, you must first know what a computer is. 
 

A computer is a machine that works with data and information in the form of numbers.  These numbers (0's and 1's) are called Binary Code. A computer is able to translate all information given to it to Binary Code. 
 
To explore Binary Code, you can click on the Binary Code link below.  This site will allow you to translate words to Binary Code and Binary Code to words!  (You may do this after you complete your Data Sheet.)
