The Core of Computing: Classical Systems Explained
Before quantum got cool, classical computing built the digital world we live in. In this blog, we explore the fundamentals, bits, logic gates, and the deterministic rules that make your code predictable and your devices reliable. Whether you're deep into tech or just curious how computers actually work, this post breaks it down in a way that just makes sense. Classical might sound old, but trust us, it still runs the world.
