Definition:-A computer is an electronic device that van perform arithmetical and logical operations,which highly processing speeds and is capable of storing large doubt of data.
Advantages:-1.Computers give accurate result after processing data.
2.Computer stores large amounts of data.
3.Computer can be operating continuously for so many hours,day and years without taking any rest.
4.Computer van be used to do risky jobs.
Disadvantages:computers are very powerful tools,but cannot think.
Block Diagram Of Computer:-
MU=Memory Unit
CU=Control Unit
ALU=Arithmetic Logic Unit
Parts Of Computer:the parts of computer are 1.Input devices 2.CPU 3.Output devices
Input:any data/Information that is given to the computer are called Input.
Input device:The devices that are used to give input to the computer are called input vice.The following are various input devices.1.Key board 2.Mouse 3.Scanner and etc....
Key board:- The key board is an input device for entering text and numbers it consists of keys 104/108 keys.It is divided into 3 parts.1.Functional keys 2.Alphanumeric keys 3.cursor controll and numerical key pad.
1.Function keys:-These are special keys used to perform special functions.These are Function keys is ordinary key board.
2.Alpha numeric keys:-This area of the key board resembles a standard type writer key board.This part of the key board consists of all alphabets,digits,special characters with additional keys Enter,CAPS LOCK,Shift keys,CTRL,ALT keys,Back space and spacebar,Tab keys
.
3.Cursor control and numeric keypad:-The control key are four keys Left cursor key,right cursor key,up,down and other numeric keypad.
MOUSE:-Mouse is specially designed,pointing devices.That contains a smooth ball under it.A mouse contains two buttons left and right buttons.The left button is used for selecting the objects,single clicking and double clicking.The right button is used for activate shortcut menus that provides list of operations that can be done on the selected objects.A small pad on which the mouse is to be moved is called mouse pad.
OTHER INPUT DEVICES:-joystick,Light pen,Bar code reader,Touch screen,OMR(Optical Mark Reader),MICR(Magnetic Ink Character Recognition).
OUTPUT:-Input is converting to the output by using a process.
OUTPUT DEVICES:-Output devices are help yo translate the result/information/ or work done by the computer into our own language or any other required form.
The main output devices are Monitor and Printer.
MONITOR:-The monitor is also called V.D.U.(Visual Display Unit) and it is also called as screen or console.The monitor consists of a cathode ray tube using which the characters can be seen.The monitor consists of 80 columns and 24 rows.It is also consists of very tinny dots.One such a dot a pixel.The monitor can be dividing into two categories.
1.Monochrome 2.Color monitor
PRINTERS:-Printer is an output device which produces the hard copy either on a paper like a material.The printer can be dividing into two categories.
1.Impact printers 2.Non impact printers
IMPACT PRINTERS:-The printers that have a direct contact between their print head and the paper are called impact printers.Ex.Daisy Wheel Printer,Dot-matrix printer.
NON-IMPACT PRINTERS:-The printers that do not show any impact directly on the paper are called Non-Impact printers.Ex.Ink jet printers,Laser printers.
C P U:-CPU means central processing unit.It contains 3 units.Arithmetic logic unit,Control unit,Memory unit.
ALU:-It performs arithmetic and logical operations.Like Addition Subtraction,Multiplication etc.
CU:-Control unit,it controls the operations.It keeps track of processing.Perform and the process to be performed.
MU:-Memory unit is used to stores the information main memory unit is divided into two types.
1.RAM 2.ROM
Advantages:-1.Computers give accurate result after processing data.
