It's just a question I had in one of my computer programming courses and I didn't remember reading about RAM..A computer's memory is like a set of playing cards, each with a different name. True or false?
I would say false, playing cards is not a really good metaphor for RAM because it doesn't show the concepts that things can be stored in RAM.
A better metaphor is a group of post office boxes. Each has it's own address and you can store an item of data in each box.
