    What is computer?

    The word “Computer” comes from the word “compute” which means to calculate.

    It is an electronic device that accepts data as input, processes that data using programs, and outputs the

    processed data as information.

    modern computers process information in digital form have a larger memory and can run several and

    more complex programs at once. The size of computers has decreased by a huge amount making

    computers very easy to carry around.

    Older Computers were analog computers.

    Input data in analog computers is not a number, infect physical quantity.

    What is hardware?

    Hardware refers to the important physical elements of a computer, which we can touch or see. such as,

    central processing unit, monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, sound card, speaker etc.

    Define Input?

    Any information or data sent to a computer for processing is considered as input and with the help

    of input devices we interact with the computer and give the instructions to it.

    For Example:- Keyboard, Mouse etc.

    Define output?
    3

    Any information that is processed and sent out from a computer considered "output". and Output

    devices provide data in different forms, some of which include audio, visual, and hard copy media.

    Monitors and printers are two of the most commonly known output devices used with a computer.

    What are storage devices ?

    Storage devices are the hardware components that stores all our digital content.

    For Example:-

    Hard Disk Drive

    CD

    USB

    What are types of computers?

    There are four different types of computers given below.

    "Super Computers"

    Super computers are fastest, most expensive and are larger having multiple CPU's so can handle many

    institutions in parallel and are use for complex calculations

    such as:

    nuclear science.

    rocket launching.

    "Mainframe Computers"
    4

    These are design to handle huge volume of data and information, typically use for large information for

    bulk data processing.

    "Mini computers"

    Minicomputers are large, expensive, fastest than microcomputers and are intermediate between micro

    and mini computers are not designed for single user it can support hundred of users at a time, used by

    small business and firms.

    "Micro Computers"

    Micro computers are also called personal computers (PC) are small low cost and for single user digital

    computer, consist of CPU, input output and storage units and the software.

    Uses of Computers in various fields.

    Computers are used in so many fields in our daily life. From Engineers to Doctors, Students, Teachers,

    and

    Government Organization they all use computers to perform specific tasks, for entertainment or just to

    finish office work. Computers have made our life easier With less time taking. computers can do a lot in
