Are Computers Magic?

      I do not think that computers are magic. They contain a main processing chips that make up the central processing unit (CPU). these chips are inside the motherboard which is located in the hardware of the computer. The chips control everything not magic.
     Computer's do what they do because first you provide an input . Then the system software tells the CPU to start up certain programs and to turn on some hardware devices so that they are ready for more input from you. This is called booting up. Then the computer processes the information you have provided and finally, you get an output which can be pictures, texts,etc.
