1
involving computers or algorithmic methods
Describing work or methods that use computers and step-by-step rules to study or solve problems.
Vartosenos šablonas:
computational [field/method/model/analysis]
Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes use *computer* instead of *computational* before a field name, saying *computer biology* or *computer linguistics*. In these academic areas, the natural phrase is *computational biology* or *computational linguistics*, meaning the field uses computer-based methods.
Sinonimai
computer-based (Stresses that something is done with the help of a computer, slightly less formal and technical.)
|
algorithmic (Emphasizes the step-by-step procedural nature more than the use of computers themselves.)
|
digital (Broader and less precise; often about electronic or online systems, not always about methods of analysis.)
Antonimai
manual (Highlights that a task is done by hand or without computers, contrasting with computer-based methods.)

about computing cost or effort
Describing how much computer time or power a task or method needs to run.
Vartosenos šablonas:
computational [cost/load/complexity/requirements]
Dažna klaida:
Learners may think *computational* here means simply *difficult* in a general sense. In technical contexts, it specifically refers to the amount of computer time, memory, or processing power needed, not to mental difficulty or human effort.
Sinonimai
processing (Often used in phrases like *processing power* or *processing requirements*; focuses on the same idea of needed computer work.)
|
resource-intensive (Broader; can refer to computing resources but also money, time, or people, not just computation.)
Antonimai
negligible (Used to describe a task whose computational cost is so small it can almost be ignored.)
