Is it really any different than when the formula did it?

By formula do you mean algorithm
Is an algorithm not a formula?
Some algorithms might be able to be written as formulas but generally no. An algorithm is a repetition of steps to achieve a desired result and does not have a fixed way of representing itself because it could make different decisions along the way in different situations.
A sorting algorithm is not a formula, for example. Formulas are mathematical or logical expressions that can be evaluated.
