For example, a motorcycle is a complex machine in composition as it requires the frame, engine, and electronics all to be assembled in a very specific way to work. But the basic idea of a motorcycle is just something that carries you quickly on two wheels. So a motorcycle would not be difficult to create. Something like a computer or a particle accelerator performs much more complex actions, and so would be much more difficult to create.
