A code or function or definition is typed into a system and inputting “A” will always result in “B”.             What I found interesting was that everything on the computer is only based on “1” or “0”. Two simple numbers can code for every single function on a computer.             I find this course a little bit difficult since it is not like the usual course with pens and papers, everything taught in this course is done on a computer which is unique. The attention to detail in this course is very important since the ord
