What is moore's law?
Moore's law: The observation, made by Gordon Moore, that the number of transistors on a chip roughly doubles about every two years. It has loosely guided the rise in computing power, though its pace has slowed in recent years.
Moore's law: an example
Chips of the same size could hold about twice the transistors after two years, which supported steady speed gains.
