Processors, how they help computation in electronic devices: Part 1

    What drives our computers? What powers your iPad or computer in these tough times. Your brain is what powers your body, it is the hardrive of your body. Okay, now that we have that covered, we need to know where the computers brain is, and what it is. A computers brain is usually a hardrive, or a chip, this chip contains information on what the computer needs to do.  There are two main types of chips used in devices, an ARM chip (used in apple devices, like a iPad) and a Intel chip (Used in Windows computers, like a microsoft surface pro), but how can these chips effect a computers performance? Well, let us start with the traditional Intel chip. An intel processor (chip basically) can hold a lot of data, and can perform very well. Intel processors can show a variety of softwares and perform them very well depending on the chip you use. Intel chips are mostly used in devices like computers, and other powerful devices. Now, let's talk about the ARM processor. The ARM processor can't use a variety of programs unless the programs are directly coded into the processor. Although ARM chips can't run a variety of programs, they enhance performance on programs that are avaliable to the user to a very high rate. Some computers (ex. Surface pro X) use ARM processors and they also have very high performance rates. Each technological company uses a certain chip (ex. Microsoft uses intel, apple uses ARM), but each of these processors are like neurons to a cell, similarly a computer can't run without without a hardrive.
