its memory to perform tasks.
•Accepts data

PARTS OF COMPUTER

According to above definition we can divide computer functionality in


to three main parts
•Input
•Process
• Output

Input

Input is any data or instructions entered to the computer. Input can be

processed data is more valuable when it’s presented in a clear
and informative way, data-processing systems are often called
information systems. The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is
responsible for carrying out all these processing tasks in a
computer.
