Friday: Processor review

Rocket draws a chip on paper. "My processor!"

Raven asks, "What do you notice it can do?"

Nova glows. "Hint: say the three big ideas."

Three big ideas

  • The processor follows instructions.
  • It does one step at a time, in order.
  • It is very, very fast.

The processor is a small chip inside the case.

Too many jobs can make it slow.

Safe fixes: close apps, wait, restart with a grown-up.
