Thread Name: BS: Brain = Digital Computer?
Subject: RE: BS: Brain = Digital Computer?
I still don't understand. If the brain is composed solely of binary switches, how can that differ in nature from a very lrge digital computer? Certainly, the brain's organization of switches is vastly more complex than any man-made computer has been, and certainly the brain's "output" appears to be analog rather than diguital, but ultimately isn't the difference between "analog" and "digital" one of resolution?
