Hi guys, I finally understand the concept of "deleting data/updating data", I understand how the PC updating data and where the old data is just implicitly "gone" .. it's a concept like ON and OFF in digital logic, but what's confusing me now ..is there a hardware on PC to output ON/OFF to fill specific DATA?! and is there a hardware that's translate ON/OFF to DATA ?!

Hi Ryan -- this will be a really great question to ask your teacher when you start taking an electronics course (please say "Hi" to him or her from us).

Ryan,All what you call DATA is just ON/OFF in the PC. There is hardware in your PC to translate it from your keyboard and also to your screen. Don't worry about how it works for now. Just trust that it's a more advanced topic that you will understand later.

Ryan, for heaven's sake!> is there a hardware on PC to output ON/OFF to fill specific DATA?! and is there a hardware that's translate ON/OFF to DATA ?!Yes, there is, it's called a memory chip!ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW is that when you say X=3 it puts 3 in X in the memory, and when you say PRINT X it gets 3 from the memory and shows it on the screen.You don't need to know anything else! Why do you complicate everything???
