 The computer system consist of four elements:
Hardware, Software, People, and Data.
 Hardware refers to any part of the computer that
you can touch, such as the monitor, keyboard, mouse
and printer. Hardware devices are used to control
the computer’s input and output.
 Software refers to the set of instructions that tells the
computer what to do and how to do it. Software
consists of complex codes known as programs.
Without software, the hardware is useless. Word

desktop publishing are some of the common
software.
 People, also known as users, operate the computer
hardware. They create and use the computer
software. They enter the data into and use the
information generated by the computer system.
 Data are raw facts. They can be in the form of
letter, numbers, sounds, and pictures.
