That's not how I would explain bioinformatics and computational biology... What people often mean when they say bioinformatics is actually computational biology: using computer software, algorithms and other such tools to analyze biological data. Bioinformatics is the development of new tools, new algorithms and new methods to do computational biology. In other words, a bioinformatician is to a computer scientist what a computational biologist is to a data scientist. Using biological systems to do computing is more in the realm of "biological computers".
