introduction to Computers

What is a computer ? or What do you mean by computer ?  

"A computer is an electronic device machine which takes inputs and processes to give desirable outputs as we want to perform a specific task by logically processing a system which is to be set up by register memory."

 
 

A computer is a very versatile electronic machine

created by humans.

It has made a great impact on our everyday life.

This electronic machine are generally uses some

places such as :-

  • Home 
  • School 
  • Colleges 
  • Office
  • Industries
  • Hospitals
  • Banks 
  • Malls
  • Retails stores 
  • Researches
  • Organizations

etc and some department uses.

A computer is basically a compiling machine of the
program which understands
binary instructions.
Earlier computers were used for complex
computations.
They were costly and hence only
Large organizations could afford them.
Then technological advantages in designs and
fabrications of semiconductors devices
(semiconductors such as neither insulator
nor be conductor for example [Si] Silicon and Germanium [Ge]) namely , the microprocessor has made it
possible for smaller organizations and
even individuals to afford.
These computers can not be asked for faster
calculation but also for storing and
retrieving information.
They can be used to control chemical processes
and machines.
They can even measure and display physical and
electrical quantities and
send photographs electronically or Digitally.

Note :-

A computer can not only store and process

data but also retrieve data that means

gather data from

its memory or storage as and when required,

thus a computer is a general term that refers

to an electronic data processing machine

used for a wide range of activities.

The word computer comes from the word 'compute'

that means to calculate the data

which we give to the computer as input. So normally

considered to be a calculating device

that can perform arithmetic and logical operations

at an enormous speed.

But more accurately, it may be defined as a device

that operates upon data for calculation.


Now we have a full form of computer 😄

Discuss the role played by the various components of the CPU

Q Discuss the roles played by the various components of CPU? The CPU is the brain of the computer system. All major calculations, manipulations and comparisons are made by the CPU. The CPU is also responsible for activating and controlling the operations performed by all other units of the computer system. The major components of the CPU are: a) Arithmetic Logic Unit (A.L.U.) b) Control Unit (CU) c) Primary Memory Arithmetic Logic Unit (A.L.U.): What is ALU Arithmetic logic Unit? ALU is a part of the CPU. It is a part to calculate the logical term in the CPU where the term refers to an operation of logical type. It also calculates the arithmetic terms in the CPU where the term refers to an operation of arithmetic type. It is used to direct access through the processor controller. The ALU connected to the input and output peripheral system through the bus with the different types of bus. Such as control bus, data bus etc. ALU is a part of the CPU that can calculate the input...

About the memory and its Classification of the computer Memory

What are the memories in the reference of computer system? What is Computer Memory?:- The memory is the essential for the computer to store the data, instruction and information. Without memory, computers are not be able to store data, instruction etc. The memory is an essential part of a computer system. It is require by the computer system to store information. Memory can be divided into the following two categories types: i) Primary or Main memory ii) Secondary Memory or Permanent memory In this figure I'll show the classification of the memory of computer system peripheral and architecture of organisations Primary Memory or Main memory:- i) Primary memory is the memory which is fastest memory of the computer. ii) It is a small but relatively fast storage unit that stores data and instruction which are used by the CPU (central processing unit). iii) This type or category of a memory is the main memory of the computer.It is a temporary memory and also we ...

What are the three main purpose of an operating system?

What are the three main purpose of an operating system? There are three main purpose of an operating system. 1. The first main purpose is User interface between hardware and users. 2. The second main purpose is to operate the internal parts of the computer properly and systematically using binary code system in the form of 0 and 1. 3. The third main purpose is to provide an environment for development of an application software and program to uses the hardware resources of the computer and connected to the computer parts which provides output to the user, the output from application software is very useful for users. Interface between user and hardware device  The operating system uses all types of interface such as command line interface, batch command interface and Graphical User Interface to interact with users to hardware peripheral devices through the monitor screen. Monitor has a big role making interface between hardware and users. Monitor visualization of all types ...
