Computer System-Lesson Guide
I. Introduction:
In this lesson, we will able to know what is computer system, we will be able to know the characteristics of
computer system and we will know the importance of computer system in our daily life. In today's digital age,
computers are an integral part of our lives. They are used in various fields, from education and business to
entertainment and communication. To understand how computers work and make the most of their
capabilities, it's essential to have a solid understanding of computer systems.
II. Content:
COMPUTER SYSTEM
Definition: Is a collection of entities(hardware,software and
liveware) that are designed to receive, process, manage and
present information in a meaningful format. A computer
system is a set of integrated devices that input, output,
process, and store data and information. Computer systems
are currently built around at least one digital processing
device. A computer system consists of hardware
components that have been carefully chosen so that they
work well together and software components or programs
that run in the computer.
COMPUTER
A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations
automatically. A computer is an electronic device that can be programmed to accept data (input), process it
and generate result (output).
Accuracy
Computers perform calculations with 100% accuracy. Errors may occur due to data inconsistency or
inaccuracy.
Deligence
A computer can perform millions of tasks or calculations with the same consistency and accuracy. It doesn’t
feel any fatigue or lack of concentration. Its memory also makes it superior to that of human beings.
Versatility
Versatility refers to the capability of a computer to perform different kinds of works with same accuracy and
efficiency.
Reliability
A computer is reliable as it gives consistent result for similar set of data i.e., if we give same set of input any
number of times, we will get the same result.
Automation
Computer performs all the tasks automatically i.e. it performs tasks without manual intervention.
Memory
A computer has built-in memory called primary memory where it stores data. Secondary storage are
removable devices such as CDs, pen drives, etc., which are also used to store data.
