DEFINITION OF COMPUTER

• A computer is a machine that can be programmed to carry out sequences of


arithmetic or logical operations automatically. Modern digital electronic computers
can perform generic sets of operations known as programs. These programs enable
computers to perform a wide range of tasks.

SYSTEM
• HARDWARE
Hardware refers to the external
and internal devices and equipment
that enable you to perform major
functions such as input, output, storage,
communication, processing, and more.
There are two types of computer
hardware: External and Internal.

CPU
COMPONENTS OF HARDWARE

The most significant processor in a computer is know as a central processing unit, sometimes
known as a central processor or main processor. Its electronic circuitry carries out the
computer program’s input/output, input/logic, and arithmetic instructions.

SOFTWARE
Software is a set of instructions, data, or programs used to operate computers
and execute specific tasks. It is the opposite of hardware, which describe the
physical aspects of a computer. Software is a generic term used to refer to
applications, scripts, and programs that run n a device. It can be thought of as
the variable part of a computer, while hardware is the invariable part.

The operating system coordinates all of this to make
sure each program gets what it needs.
