This document discusses the basic components and functions of a computer system. It describes that a computer manipulates data through electronic components including the central processing unit (CPU) that performs arithmetic and logical operations, random access memory (RAM) for data storage, and a hard disk drive for permanent storage. It also discusses the motherboard that connects these core components, the power supply that provides electricity, input/output devices like keyboards and monitors to receive and display data, and the computer case that houses these internal parts. The document provides examples of common input and output devices and explains system and application software that control the computer and allow users to perform tasks.

Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information, or data Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Hardware is any part of your computer that has a physical structure Essentials of Computer Output And Input Device Essentials of Computer Output Device - Any peripheral that receive or displays output from a computer Input Device -An input device is any hardware device that sends data to the computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer A motherboard (sometimes alternatively known as the mainboard, system board, planar board or logic board,or colloquially, a mobo) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) found in computers and other expandable systems. It holds many of the crucial electronic components of the system, such as the central processing unit (CPU) and memory, and provides connectors for other peripherals. Essentials of Computer A power supply is an electronic device that supplies electric power to an electrical load. The primary function of a power supply is to convert one form of electrical energy to another and, as a result, power supplies are sometimes referred to as electric power converters Essentials of Computer A central processing unit (CPU) (formerly also referred to as a central processor unit) is the hardware within a computer that carries out the instructions of a computer program by performing the basic arithmetical, logical, and input/output operations of the system. Essentials of Computer Random-access memory (RAM) is a form of computer data storage. A random- access memory device allows data items to be read and written in roughly the same amount of time regardless of the order in which data items are accessed. Essentials of Computer Hard disk drive (HDD)
is a data storage device used for storing and retrieving digital information using rapidly rotating disks (platters) coated with magnetic material. An HDD retains its data even when powered off. Essentials of Computer A computer case also known as a "computer chassis", "tower", "system unit", "base unit" or simply "case" and sometimes incorrectly referred to as the "CPU" or "hard drive", is the enclosure that contains most of the components of a computer.

1. What is computer 2. Difference of input and output device 3. What is important input or output devices or both and why Essentials of Computer Essentials of Computer System Software And Application Software Essentials of Computer System Software - is the software used to manage and control the hardware components and which allow interaction between the hardware and the other types of software. The most obvious type of system software is the computer's operating system but device drivers are also included within this category. Essentials of Computer Application Software - are designed to allow the user of the system complete a specific task or set of tasks. They include programs such as web browsers, office software, games and so on. They are usually the reason you bought the computer system in the first place and aren't concerned with the management or maintenance of the system itself. Essentials of Computer
Essentials of Computer Microsoft Windows is a series of graphical interface operating systems developed, marketed, and sold by Microsoft.
