1.Speed: computer process the data at an
unimaginable speed. The speed of the computer
ranges up to Nano seconds.
2. Reliability: The next important characteristic of
a computer is its reliability. we can always rely
on the information given by a computer.
3. Memory capacity: The memory capacity of a
computer is measured in in bits and bytes. Large
amount of the data can be stored in computer
and retrieved. Memory capacity of the computer
ranges in Giga bytes.
4. Accuracy: Accuracy of the computer is very
high it performs calculation with greater
accuracy
in less time.
5. Automation: a computer allows automation
for any process designed in the from of a
program. A program can be executed any
number of times to repeat the process.
6. functionality: computer can performs many
kinds
of jobs. They not process the data but also can be
Used for plying music, movies, and printing jobs.
It finds its applications in all most all the fields.
7. Tirelessness: A computer never gate tired.
