Electronics are required to make computing machines practical because they are capable of performing all of the essential operations (read, write, add, subtract, etc.) with components that take up a very small amount of space. While it is possible to make a completely mechanical computing machine, the sheer amount of machinery required to perform even simple operations makes this type of machine infeasible.
