Hardware and Software

Hardware refers to the physical components of a computer such as the central processing unit, memory, keyboard, monitor, and peripheral devices like printers and scanners. Software refers to the computer programs used to operate and control the hardware by performing arithmetic, logical operations and comparisons. Computer generations progressed from using vacuum tubes, to transistors, to integrated circuits and very large scale integrated circuits which increased processing power and capabilities over time.
