- Aqueous 14y agoThe brain is made up of neurons. The neuron is a device that stores and processes information. Does it do so using a finite set of logical steps? We don't quite know yet, but it seems likely, since the behavior of the neuron has been shown to closely follow a known set of differential equations (the cable equations - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_theory http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cable_theory). But using the broadest definition of a computer, a device that stores and processes information, the brain is most certainly a computer.
