Processing is the thinking that computer dose-the calculations, comparisons, and decisions. People also process data. What you see and hear and touch and feel input. Then you connect this new input with what you already know, look for how it all fits together, and come up with a reaction, you output. “ That stove is hot. I’ll move my hand now!”

The kind of “thinking” that computer do is very different from what people do.

Machines have to think the hard way. They do one thing at a time, one step at a time.
Complex procedures must be broken down into VERY simple step. Then these steps can be repeated hundreds or thousands or millions of times. All possible choices can be tried and a list kept of what worked and what didn’t.

People, one other hand, are better at recognizing patterns than they are at single facts and step-by-step procedures. For example, faces are very complex structures. But you can identify hundreds and even thousands of different faces.
But a computer must have a lot of specific facts about a face to recognize it. Teaching computers
To pick mom’s face out of a crowd is one of the hardest things scientists have tried to do yet with computers.
But babies do it naturally!

So computer can’t think in the same way that people do. But what they do, they excellently well and very, very fast.
