No
Computers are designed to work a certain way
Ik they are different but idk how to explain it, like they both can be used to store and process info and humans use chemicals to store info

You need to mention how comparing a human to a computer is an over-simplified analogy because unlike humans, computers do not experience feelings. Therefore, using only three keywords (input, storage, output) is wrong.

Have you learn the PEEL method when writing evaluations?

Good. Use the PEEL method and what I have told you to aid you in writing the evaluation.

I have responded to your other threads, by the way.
