A computer is a machine designed to perform work mathematically and to
store and select information that has been fed into it. It is run by electronic
means. These machines can do a great deal of hard work in a very short
time. A large computer, for example, can add nine thousand times a second,
or divided five hundred times a second.
The heart of an electronic computer lies in its transistors. It works thousands
times faster than the human brain. A problem that might take a human being
two years to solve can be solved by a computer in one minute. But in order
to work properly, a computer must be given directions---it must have
programmed.
Computers can be designed for many specialized aims---they can be used to
guide airplane flights, direct cars, even to play chess. Computers play an
important part in modern work in many plants and factories throughout the
world.51. A computer is a machine made to ______.
