and then on to,in fact, build a commercial microprocessor of the age, step by step. the register, program counter, Arithmetic, Logic Unit, The Instruction Decoder. It builds on absolutely fundamental concepts, logical components, simple logic gates, the mysterious flip-flop, the universal gate, the ROM, and then on to the stored program computer. I took home this book, and simply read the book through the night.
I was lucky to find a copy of this book in my school library. General popular science articles weren't clear enough to give the complete picture. The idea that they can make decisions, remember things etc. After hearing about digital computers while in high school (this was mid 80s), I was extremely curious about understanding how these so called 'computers' work.
