How Computers Really Work: A countdown on a von Neumann machine

This interactive mini-simulation shows a stored-program computer in the classic von Neumann style executing a tiny machine-code program that counts down from 10 to 0. You can watch the registers and memory interact during the fetch–decode–execute cycle. It’s a compact demonstration of the model that underlies almost all modern computing—right up to the CPUs and…
