The computer, or the telegraph system?
I will give you both, just for more information.
The computer is an addition computer that runs by having repeaters fire a redstone signal a certain amount of times (according to the number entered.) It will then run over to a piston feed tape, with normal blocks all around it, except for the redstone block which represents the number. The value of that number is then sent to a 7-segment display, which will process that number. If the numerical value of the first number exceeds 9, it will go to the second piston feed tape, leading into the second 7-segment display, which will compute that signal and display a number in the 10's value.
The telegraph system is a way that you can send Morse code through a wire. Instead of redstone, the device will use tripwires, which will look more like a telephone wire, just for extra frills. It will then output the morse code to the person at the end of the line. This is a relatively simple device, but it still works great!
