Abstract

Most problems are not capable of simple solution in the sense that a yes/no decision cannot be made until several factors are considered. In arriving at a solution to a problem the process is one of a series of yes/no decisions taken in sequence to arrive at an overall result. Electronic circuits may be used to form a ‘model’ of a particular problem and by the use of simple ON/OFF circuits simulating the alternatives, the solutions to complex problems may be obtained.
