Firstly with literal switches which are impractical but useful for understanding the concept and then with transistors which are what are actually used in computers. +In the discussion of [digital circuits](/Electronics/Digital_Circuits/Digital_circuits.md) we noted that a digital circuit requires that electrical phenomena be treated as discrete rather than continuous values.
