How do you move from it being a collection of transistors to it being a fully functional computer?

Answer 1

You can arrange transistors so that they can behave in the same manner as logical gates (interpreting High and Low voltage as True or False). And you can arrange logical gates to mimic mathematical operations (interpreting True and False as 1 or 0).
