the beauty of gates

do you wonder why we learn logic gates..logic gates are used to perform logical operations we know that in a computer the computer doesn,t know spanish english or any other language it only knows high or low voltage when high voltage is given it asumes"yes or 1" and low voltage is preferred as "no ,0" so these series of10101010101010000000001010100101010101 represent any word or instructions for example in order to produce certain logics flipflops,counters ,registers are used ...you mi8 havee studied these( jk flipflop,set reset flip flop,toggle flip flop)..we are just making a small tiny brain which doesnt have neurons but have these gates..when you open the computer and see the mother board you mi8 have seen a green board and there you see a design " a design with small capacitors inductors ,tiny tiny transistors,diodes...so you might get the question what the hell ...how do they make this...now this shows the engineering skill...we do design use logical math and theorems from physics and combine them to make what we need..we made semiconductors with excellent properties..we learn magnetism,semiconductors,electron behavior,laplace transform wchich convets the time domain into frequency domain for easy calculation ,we made complex numbers that form different mapps when multiplied insteadd of using polar co-ordinate these are very useful...but unless these are not understtod or the beauty of nature and reality is not understood..engineering remains  a mystery...and finally let me say one thing these electrons move at the speed of light the gates,diodes are all like switches"on or off"
