.... in the picture is stored as mathematical equations. Engineering drawing applications such as CAD (computer assisted device) use this method. The other method is by bit mapped graphics. Here the computer actually keeps track of every point in the picture and its description. Paint programs use this technique. Drawing programs are usually vector mapped programs and paint programs are usually bit mapped. Computer sound is handled in two different ways. The sound can be described digitally and stored as an image (wave format) of the actual sound or it can .....

.... programs. These computers are some of the most high tech, powerful computers available anywhere in the world. It takes many of these engineers to produce a car and typically each engineer has a specific job, such as the car's frame. These engineers work independently on their assigned tasks, but they all are aware of what the other engineers are working on. This is because all of the work each engineer produces must work in unison with the work their colleagues are doing so that all the work produced functions as one; as an automobile.
