How does computer memory work? To truly understand how computer memory works, we must first examine the basic building blocks that make it possible: transistors and logic gates.

How does a computer chip work? originally appeared on Quora. You can follow Quora on Twitter , Facebook , and Google+ . This answer has been lightly edited for grammar and clarity.

To do this you would need to build a quantum computer with a few so-called “logical” qubits that actually do the math, and a bunch of standard qubits that correct for errors.

This work showed snippets of code to novice, experienced, and expert programmers while they lay in an fMRI. The participants were asked to categorize them into one of four types of algorithms.

In order for this to work, you have to pull the output rod back when you are done and push it when you want to read the output–almost like a clocked logic design on an FPGA.
