Somewhere around middle school, you learned about squaring numbers and the inverse, finding the square root of a number, but a little reminder can't hurt. You square a number when you multiply it by ...

Using a computer-like system made from engineered DNA, scientists have computed the square root of 900. Biologists have proposed using genetic material for performing computations since as early as ...

A new DNA computer calculates square roots of perfect squares up to 900. Like quantum computers, DNA computers are an exciting frontier of post-silicon computing. Where previous examples were up to 4 ...

Researchers at the University of Rochester in New York have developed a DNA computer that’s capable of performing square root calculations of numbers all the way up to 900. It’s an impressive ...

A computer made from strands of DNA in a test tube can calculate the square root of numbers up to 900. Chunlei Guo at the University of Rochester in New York state and colleagues developed a computer ...

A biocomputer has demonstrated the advanced computational capabilities DNA-based architecture could bring to future PCs by calculating the square root of 900. As reported by New Scientist, academic ...

While DNA-based computing may not be taking over silicon quite so soon, there is progress in the works. In a paper published by Small, researchers from the University of Rochester demonstrate a ...
