Computers need to take a nap like we do. When they're not working, sleeping helps them save energy so they can be ready for the next time you need them. Think of it like going to bed after a long day, your computer wakes up fresh and ready to play games or open apps again.
Examples
- Your laptop takes a nap when you close the lid.
- Your phone goes to sleep after you finish watching a video.
- A computer wakes up instantly when you press a key.
