Problem Solving on Computer

What is common in all the applications?

What is the role of the computer?

Is it only numerical calculations?

Is everything reduced to numbers (remember computer can internally handle only bits- 0 or 1) and mathematical operations on numbers?

What then is ``problem solving?''
