computers vs. human beings

 

A computer can solve a series of problems and make hundreds, even
thousands, of logical decisions without becoming tired or bored. It
can carry out the solution to a problem in a fraction of the time it
takes a human being to do the job. A computer can replace people in
dull, routine tasks, but it has no creativity; it works according to the
instructions given to it and cannot make any decisions by itself. There
are times when a computer seems to operate like a mechanical
“brain,” but its achievements are limited by the minds of human
beings.
A computer cannot do anything unless a person tells it what to do and
gives it the appropriate data. However, because electric pulses can
move at the speed of light, a computer can carry out lots of
mathematical operations in a very short time. A person can do
everything a computer can do, but in many cases that person would
probably be dead before the job was finished.
