WHAT IS A COMPUTER? According to Khensani Phasha (2024), A computer is ANY electronic device that accepts and processes data, stores information and data, and outputs either information for people to use or data for other computers to use. A computer is composed of hardware and software, and both are essential parts of a computer system.

Hardware and Software Hardware- any parts of the computer that can be seen and touched (Physical/ tangible parts of a computer) Software- parts of the computer that can be seen but cannot be touched. They activate the physical parts of a computer. (Sets of instructions that tell the computer what to do).

Hardware vs Software Hardware has three categories: Input devices Output devices Storage devices Software has two categories: System software Application software

There are different types of computers

THE INFORMATION PROCESSING CYCLE There are five stages in the information processing cycle Input Process Output Storage Communication All computers, whether they are the smartphone in your hand or large, powerful servers, operate on the same five basic stages.

Information processing cycle

INPUT DEVICES An input device is any piece of hardware used to send data to a computer so it can be processed. Below are the examples.

processing Processing refers to the stage where the computer takes the raw data entered through input devices and transforms it into meaningful information. Below are the processing devices like CPU etc.

Output devices Output refers to any information that has been processed by the computer and is delivered to the user through an output device.
