2. INFORMATION PROCESSING CYCLE.

3. input The data is put into the computer at the input stage. There are numerous methods for achieving this; examples of input devices include keyboards, touchscreens, and microphones. The user enters data into the computer by, for instance, speaking into a microphone or typing on a keyboard. This data is put into the gadget, which transforms it into a binary code—a string of 1s and 0s .

4. processing The CPU communicates with the computer's memory to receive instructions on how to display the Information from the input device. The information is transferred to the output device for effective translation and display. All of this takes a fraction of a second to complete.

5. storage Storage is where the computer receives input and saves it in memory banks. There are various methods for storing data, but the main procedure is as follows: 1. The CPU stores data in the computer's random access memory (RAM). 2. The computer waits for the user's command to transfer the data from RAM to permanent storage. If the command is issued, the computer will write the data to the disk drive. 3. The computer saves the data on the drive, either in the default or user-defined place. The user can access the stored information at any time.

6. output Output refers to how pixels are displayed to the user after processing. There are several output devices, including printers, screens, video, and audio devices.

7. communication The information processing cycle's other phases are connected to communication. Every step in the cycle is connected because it depends on the step that came before it. The information processing cycle's communication component is represented by this connection. The majority This includes the link between input and output, which is apparent. Nearly instantaneous input and output occur (typing a letter on a keyboard, for instance, causes it to show on a screen virtually instantly). This is how the user and computer communicate with each other.
