What's a virus, anyway? The bare-bones basics
Is there a a good read on how RNA and DNA work for a Computer Scientist? And more generally how biology, genetics, epigenetics, virus, etc work?<p>Many vulgarization sources say that DNA is like the source code of life. But they mostly skim across the issue and go to conclusions like "this gene or set of genes are responsible for that outcome".<p>But coming from a CS background that sounds a bit like non-sense. I feel like it is like saying that "this processor instruction is responsible for that outcome". But in the end what is important is not the individual instruction but the interaction between them and the environment (Input / Ouput).
