COMPUTER FUNDAMENTALS

A computer is an electronic machine that accepts


data, stores and processes data into information.
The computer is able to work because there are
instructions in its memory directing it.

The parts of the computer that you can see and


touch, such as the keyboard, monitor and the
mouse are called hardware. The instructions that direct the computer are called
software or computer program.

Data which is raw facts that you the user enter into the computer is called input.
This includes; words, numbers, sound and pictures. When the data is entered into
the computer, the computer processes the data to produce information which is
output. For example, you enter 2+2 into the computer as data, the computer
processes it and the result is 4 which is information.

Computers are usually categories into three general categories:

• Supercomputer – The fastest, largest, most powerful and most expensive


computer.
• Mainframe Computer – This is a little smaller and less powerful than the
supercomputer, but, like the supercomputer it is also expensive.
• Personal Computer (PC) - This is the computer that most people use in
their daily lives. This computer is much smaller, less powerful and less
expensive than the supercomputer and the mainframe computer. There are
two main types of personal computers. Macintosh (Macs) and the PC
compatibles (PC). The main differences between the two are the operating
systems and the processor they use. This category of computer has two
additional types of computers. These are mobile computer and handheld
computer. The most popular type of mobile computer is the notebook or
laptop computer, and the handheld computer is a very small PC that you
can hold in your hand.

It is important to note that, any computer; regardless of its size have an input device,
output device and a system unit.
