Regarded as a semiotic process, this amounts to a sequence of signs, every one after the first serving as the [[interpretant]] of its predecessor, ending in a final sign that may be taken as the canonical sign for their common object, in the upshot being the result of the computation process.  Simple as it is, this exhibits the main features of any computation, namely, a semiotic process that proceeds from an obscure sign to a clear sign of the same object, being in its aim and effect an action on behalf of clarification.
