11. Arts and Entertainment • You can use computers

to create drawings and paintings. Photographers
use computers to edit and enhance pictures.
Writers use computers to write content for their
books and to create illustrations. Using
computers, writers can make changes in the
content easily and save time. • You can also use
computers for entertainment. You can listen to
music, watch movies, store and print
photographs, send greetings, and play games by
using a computer.

12. Publishing • You can use computers to design any

type of publication ranging from simple
newsletters to fashion magazines, marketing
materials, books, or newspapers.

13.  Think It Through  • You have seen that

computers play a role in virtually every aspect of
our life. • Create a Tree Map that describes how
you and your family interact with computers in the
seven areas we looked at: Education, Business &
Finance, Healthcare, Scientific Research,
Government Affairs, Arts & Entertainment, and
Publishing. • For each area, write a complete
sentence that explains how a computer plays a
role in your or a family members life.

14. Tree Map For each area, write a complete

sentence that explains how a computer plays a
role in your or a family members life. The light
blue boxes will grow as you type.

computers to predict when a Hurricane will hit our
area. I can go online to email my mayor,
congressman or senator about things that I want
changed. Many films that I watch use 3D effects
and digital effects that are not possible without
computers. I can email pictures to be printed and
my favorite magazine is created on computers. For
each area, write a complete sentence that
explains how a computer plays a role in your or a
family members life.

16.  Think It Through  • Writing: Write a short story

that describes one day in your life without
computers. Consider that virtually everything with

33. Topic 3:The Functions of a Computer

34. Objective: - Identify the four major functions of a

computer.- Identify basic computer terms.

35. Computer Functions: A computer has four

functions: 1. To Accept data- Input 2. To Process
data- Processing 3. To Produce output- Output 4.
To Store results- Storage …… Input Output

36. Input Everything a user “tells” a computer.

Commands are given to the computer in different
ways depending on the type of Interface being
used. They can be a typed command, selected
from a menu, or clicked with a mouse. Running
programs, software, uploading data and
 responding to a computers question are also
considered Input. Input

37. Processing The thinking that the computer does -

the calculations, comparisons, and decisions. A
computer’s speed is often compared to its central
processing unit (CPU), the part of the computer
where all computer processing takes place.
However, speed is also affected by the amount of
RAM memory that is available. ……

38. Output Data that has been processed into useful

form, now called Information. It can be described
as: Hard copy: printed on paper or other
permanent media Soft copy: displayed on the
screen or by other non-permanent means Output

39. Storage If you do not save your work to a Storage

Device like the computer’s Hard Drive, a USB Drive,
a CD or a Network Drive like the Assignment Drive,
that information will be lost when you close the
program. Memory Speed measures the time it
takes to move data in or out of memory. It is
measured in megahertz (MHz). Memory Capacity
measures the amount of data that a device can
hold. It is measured in bytes. The Prefix Mega
(MB), Giga (GB) and Tera (TB) describe if the bytes
are numbered in the Millions, Billions or Trillions.

40. Storage Devices • You use storage devices to keep

computer information for later use. Storage
devices come in many forms. Some examples are
hard drive or disk, CD-ROM, floppy disk, and DVD-
ROM. Storage devices can be divided into two
types, internal storage devices and external
storage devices. Some common storage devices
are : • Hard Disk • Floppy Disk • CD-ROM or DVD-
ROM • USB Flash Drive • Cloud Storage

41. Hard Disk Drive & Floppy Disk • Hard disk drive. A
magnetic disk that is usually the main storage
device on most computers. It can be an external or
an internal device. • Floppy disk. A portable
storage device that allows you to store a small
amount of data. A disadvantage of this disk is that
it can be easily damaged by heat, dust, or
magnetic fields.

42. CD and DVD ROM • CD-ROM. A portable storage

medium that allows you to store 400 times more
data than on a floppy disk. It is less prone to
damage than a floppy disk. • DVD-ROM. A portable
storage medium that is similar to a CD-ROM;
however, it can store larger amounts of data than
a floppy disk or a CD-ROM. A DVD-ROM is
commonly used to store movies and videos.

43. Flash Storage • USB flash drive. A small portable

storage device that is typically the size of a thumb.
They can be plugged into any computer with a
USB drive and as such are a very popular medium
of storage. • Flash Memory Cards. Used in digital
cameras, cell phones, video game consoles and
MP3 players, flash memory cards come in many
shapes and sizes. You will need a card reader to
retrieve the information once it is removed from
the device.

44. Cloud Storage • Cloud storage service. A modern,

fast growing storage service that uses the Internet
and central remote servers to maintain and store
data and applications. For example, iTunes allows
you to back up your devices to Cloud Storage.
There are many free and paid cloud storage
services available.

45. Mass Storage Capacities

46. Hardware • Hardware refers to all the physical

components of a computer. It includes all input
devices, processing devices, storage devices, and
output devices. The keyboard, mouse,
motherboard, monitor, hard disk, cables, and
printer are all examples of hardware. • You use
hardware to provide input to a computer and also
to get the desired output. For example, when you
play a musical instrument, such as a piano, you
provide input by pressing the keys and get the
desired output in the form of music. Similarly,
computers also need input and output devices to
perform tasks.

47. Software • Software refers to instructions that tell

a computer how to perform a function. Software
can also be referred to as a program or
application. Software must be downloaded to a
computer and installed before it can be used. •
The distinction between software and hardware is
sometimes confusing because they are so
integrally linked. Clearly, when you purchase a
program, you are buying software. But to buy the
software, you need to buy the disk or device
(hardware) on which the software is stored.

48. Networks • You can connect your computer to

other computers to share information and
hardware components. A group of computers and
associated devices that are linked together to
facilitate sharing information is called a network.
Networks can also be used to share data and
devices such as printers. You can also
communicate with other computer users on the
network. • Our entire school is connected on a
network. You can access the “Template” Drive from
any computer in our school. You can send a
document from any classroom to print in the
office.

49. LANs & WANs • Depending upon the area

covered, a network can be categorized as a local
area network (LAN) or a wide area network (WAN).
• LAN - A Local Area Network connects devices
within a limited area, such as a home or a small
group of offices. It commonly includes computers
and shared resources such as printers and
scanners. • WAN - A Wide Area Network is a
network that connects devices in geographically
separated areas. You can use the resources of a
WAN to connect two or more LANs by using long
wires, optical cables, and satellites. Many
organizations use a WAN to connect their
networks across different countries. The Internet
is an example of a WAN.

50. Generally, a LAN is connected by cables that

physically meet each other. Whereas a WAN uses
the Internet to connect the computers and
components.
