Introduction to Computers
What is a Computer?
Computers are electronic devices that can follow
instructions to accept input, process that input,
and produce information.
Alternatively, a computer is a device capable of
performing calculations and making logical
decisions at speeds millions, and even billions, of
times faster than human beings can.

Introduction to Computers
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
Generally, the term is used to describe a
collection of devices that function together
as a system

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
17-Aug-2016
21
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.
Any other pointing device ?

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
fixed on a chip that has start-up directions
for your computer. It is permanent memory.

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.

Storage Devices
Auxiliary storage devices are used to store
data when they are not being used in
memory. The most common types of
auxiliary
storage
used
on
personal
computers are floppy disks, hard disks and
CD-ROM drives

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

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 80 GB to 1000GB (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
A CD-ROM (read only memory), is a
compact disc that uses the same laser
technology as audio CDs for recording
music. In addition it can contain other types
of data such as text, graphics, and video
The capacity of a CD-ROM is 700 MB of data
