Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "compute" in very casual speech where "do the math" or "figure out" would sound more natural. "Compute" is correct but can sound a bit formal or technical in everyday conversation. Also, some learners confuse "compute" with "count": "compute to ten" is wrong; say "count to ten".
Význam
calculate a number or result
Kolokace
compute the result
|compute the average
|compute the cost
|compute the total
|compute the probability
|compute a value
Synonyma
calculate (The most common general word for finding an answer using numbers; slightly more general and more frequent than "compute" in everyday speech.)
Antonyma
guess (Means to give an answer without using careful calculation or exact methods, which is the opposite of computing.)

Definice
To find a number or answer by doing math, often using a computer or calculator.
To calculate an exact result by using mathematics, often with the help of a computer or calculator.

Častá chyba:
Learners often think "compute" in computer science always means working with numbers, but it can also refer to operations on text, images, or any kind of data. Another confusion is using "compute" transitively in patterns where English prefers intransitive or passive forms, for example, saying "It computes the in O(n)" instead of "It computes in O(n) time."
Význam
process data by computing
Kolokace
compute the output
|compute a function
|compute the result
|compute a solution
|compute in real time
|compute efficiently
Synonyma
process (A broader technical term for a computer working on data; it does not always imply a clear numerical result the way "compute" often does.)
Antonyma
store (In computing, storing data means keeping it without changing it, while computing data means actively performing operations on it.)
Témata

Definice
To let a computer work on data and get a result, usually as part of a program or algorithm.
To perform operations on data using a computer, especially as part of an algorithm or digital system.

Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes think this use of "compute" is literal and try to use it with objects, like "I computed his story" to mean "I understood his story". In this figurative sense, "compute" is usually used without an object in patterns like "It doesn't compute" or "The story doesn't compute."
Význam
seem logical or make sense
Kolokace
it doesn't compute
|the story doesn't compute
|the numbers don't compute
|this just doesn't compute
Synonyma
add up (Common informal phrasal verb meaning to make sense; slightly less technical-sounding and more widely used than "compute" in this figurative way.)
Antonyma
