A multipurpose
machine
Topics to be covered
Introduction to
computer......
Computer is an electronic machine. It process the
data according to given instruction and yields the
desire result. Not only this if the user desire it can
store the data for future reference.
Computer would be more appropriate to call it not only a
machine but a smart Machine full stops it's such a
multipurpose machine that perform the job of several
machine at one go.
Characteristics of
computer.....
High speed More accuracy Time saving
High speed
High performance
computing (HPC) is
the ability to process
data and perform
complex calculations
at high speeds.
More accuracy
Computers perform
calculations with
100% accuracy.
Errors may occur
due to data
inconsistency or
inaccuracy.
Time saving
I can say that computers
have the potential to save
time by making tasks
more efficient and
automating repetitive
processes.
Characteristics of computer
Data ,
instructions &
information
Data
instructions & information
Computers process data to produce information.
The sets of instructions that humans give
computers are called programs or software.
Software that carries out a particular type of task
for a user is often called applications software.

of the following components
Input unit
Central processing unit (CPU)
Output unit
Basic of computer.               Characteristics of computer
Input unit
The input unit of a computer refers to the input device, which is the hardware used to
receive data from humans. Input devices convert data by humans into a form that is
understandable by computers. Examples of input units are a mouse, joystick,
keyboard, scanner, etc.
Central processing unit (CPU)
The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the primary component of a computer that
acts as its “control center.” The CPU, also referred to as the “central” or “main”
processor, is a complex set of electronic circuitry that runs the machine's operating
system and apps.
Output unit
A computer's principal output device is a monitor, often
known as a visual display unit (VDU). It displays the
processed data like text, images, videos, audios, etc.
