Part of network where one travelling to work needs other end of platform (8)
I believe the answer is:
computer
'part of network' is the definition.
'computer' can be an answer for 'network' (computer network is a kind of network). I'm not sure about the 'part of' bit.
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for computer that I've seen before include "Eg, laptop" , "Electronic device for processing data" , "PC or Mac?" , "Electronic calculator" , "Machine for calculating and storing data" .)
