Summary

      According to the article, computers are very important to our lives and societies. Computers are used in many different fields. Some of these fields are science, medicine, education, banking, crime investigation and entertainment. Science has made many new contributions to society thanks to the use of computers. Many of the new inventions in the area of technology would not have been possible without the aid of computers. The reason is that many of the large calculations needed for this technology would be almost impossible without computers. Computers also help doctors improve the treatment for their patients. It has also done a lot for people suffering from many diseases. Computers have improved x-rays and helped make machines such as MRI’s possible.

Especially considering that computers are getting better every day.

Reaction

     Computers are important for all of society. They are one of the most important inventions that have been discovered in the modern era. Computers started out as simple machines meant to do mathematical calculations but have become so much more. Computers have revolutionized society in ways that no one could have imagined twenty years ago. There is no way to fully understand all of the things that are now possible thanks to computers. They have become so much a part of our lives that we often do not even think about all that they do for us.
