How do computers or wires store memory?
First off you need to understand how computers “talk”. Computers, at their most basic level, use binary code. What is binary? It is a language of ones and zeros in either 8 bit, 16 bit, 32 bit, or 64 bit words. To fully understand binary would take all night to explain, but to keep it simple: a one represents on, and a zero represents off. So reference this to electrical pulses, if there is an electrical charge, that would be a one, and if there is no electrical charge then it is a zero. If this is referenced to magnetic, then positive(north) is a one, negative(south) a zero. Wires do not store memory, they are a medium for information to travel from one destination to another. The information is passed in pulses of energy, be it light or electrical. When an email is sent out from your computer to the internet (for instance) the information is translated into electrical pulses and sent through the internet protocols to the destination computer which then translates the pulses back into
