What Is A Computer?
A computer is an electronic device, operating under the control of instructions
(software) stored in its own memory unit, that can accept data (input), manipulate data (process),.
and produce information (output) from the processing.

Limitations of Computer
No IQ Computer is a dumb machine and it cannot do any
work without instruction from the user. We have to decide what to do and in what sequence.
No Feeling It does not have feelings or emotion, taste,
knowledge and experience. It does not distinguish between users.

Hardware
A computer's hardware consists of electronic devices; the parts we can see and touch.
The term "device" refers to any piece of hardware used by the computer, such as a keyboard, monitor, modem, mouse, etc.

04/10/23 17
The Keyboard
The most commonly used input device is the keyboard on which data is entered by manually keying in or typing certain keys. A keyboard typically has 101 or 105 keys.
![Page 18: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
04/10/23 18
The Mouse
Is a pointing device which is used to control the movement of a mouse pointer on the screen to make selections from the screen. A mouse has one to five buttons. The bottom of the mouse is flat and contains a mechanism that detects movement of the mouse.
![Page 19: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
04/10/23 19
The Central processing Unit
The central processing unit (CPU) contains electronic circuits that cause processing to occur. The CPU interprets instructions to the computer, performs the logical and arithmetic processing operations, and causes the input and output operations to occur. It is considered the “brain” of the computer.
![Page 20: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Memory
Memory also called Random Access Memory or RAM (temporary memory) is the main memory of the computer. It consists of electronic components that store data including numbers, letters of the alphabet, graphics and sound. Any information stored in RAM is lost when the computer is turned off.
Read Only Memory or ROM is memory that is etched on a chip that has start-up directions for your computer. It is permanent memory.
![Page 21: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
04/10/23 21
Output Devices
Output devices make the information resulting from the processing available for use. The two output devices more commonly used are the printer and the computer screen.
The printer produces a hard copy of your output, and the computer screen produces a soft copy of your output.
![Page 22: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
04/10/23 22
Storage Devices
Auxiliary storage devices are used to store data. The most common types of auxiliary storage used on personal computers are floppy disks, hard disks and CD-ROM drives.
![Page 23: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Floppy Disks
A floppy disk is a portable, inexpensive storage medium that consists of a thin, circular, flexible plastic disk with a magnetic coating enclosed in a square-shaped plastic shell.
![Page 24: Ipc 01](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061300/54c8d0094a79590d728b4580/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

04/10/23 25
Hard Disks
Another form of auxiliary storage is a hard disk. A hard disk consists of one or more rigid metal plates coated with a metal oxide material that allows data to be magnetically recorded on the surface of the platters.
The hard disk platters spin at a high rate of speed, typically 5400 to 7200 revolutions per minute (RPM).
Storage capacities of hard disks for personal computers range from 10 GB to 360 GB (one billion bytes are called a gigabyte).

Compact Discs
A compact disk (CD), also called an optical disc, is a flat round, portable storage medium that is usually 4.75 inch in diameter.
Uses the laser technology. CD-R/RW

How Does a Computer Know what to do?
It must be given a detailed list of instructions, called a compute program or software, that tells it exactly what to do
Before processing a specific job, the computer program corresponding to that job must be stored in memory.
Once the program is stored in memory the computer can start the operation by executing the program instructions one after the other
