102 Examples of Computing

 , updated on
Computing is the use of computers — machines that process information at reasonably high speed using mathematical and logical operations. Computers are commonly used to automate work, control things, analyze, design, create, access knowledge, entertain, communicate and socialize. These have become such a pervasive element of the human experience that modern humans may feel out of place and lost without access to computing. The following are everyday examples of computing.
