Computers are constructed with integrated circuits such as micro-processors. These processors can contain well over a billion transistors all connected with each other in an intricate pattern. In addition to this hardware, many layers of software are used, making computer systems very complex objects indeed.
However, many of the essential ideas behind the construction of computers are actually quite straightforward. The purpose of this text book is to give a concise, but precise, description of the essence of a computer. It begins by describing the logic gates that are constructed from transistors, then explains how such gates can be used to implement logic functions through combinatorial circuits. Further coverage includes key aspects of processing, Assembly programming, compiling higher-level languages, and computer organisation. The book also includes a helpful chapter on Raspberry Pi as a suitable learning tool.
