Computer

• An electronic device that can

store, retrieve, and process
data.
3 Components of
Computer
Hardware
• It
is the physical and tangible
parts or components of
computer.
Software
• It
is the set of instruction or
collection of data or program inside
the computer. It is the intangible
components of computer.
Peopleware
• Themost important component of a
computer system - people use the
power of the computer for some
purpose.
Types of Devices
INPUT DEVICES
• is
the data that you put into
the computer system for
processing.
OUTPUT DEVICES
• show people the processed
data-information in a form
that they can use.
PROCESS DEVICE
• It
is the center of activity. It is
the component which can
manipulate data.
CPU
STORAGE DEVICES
• It
consists of devices, such
as diskettes, which can store
data and programs outside
the computer itself.
STORAGE DEVICES
• It
is also called as the
secondary storage.
 PARTS OF
COMPUTER
Monitor
• It
is an output device that
displays information in
screen.
Mouse
• It
is an input device that can
control the cursor or pointer
inside the computer.
Keyboard
• Aninput device that allows a
person to enter numbers, letters
symbols, and instruction into
a computer.
Webcam
• An input device that feeds or
streams its image in real time
to or through a computer.
Microphone
• It allow users to input audio,
music and sound into their
computer
Speaker
• It
generates music, sounds
and audio aloud. It is also an
example of output device.
Headphones/earphones
• Anoutput device that can
generates music, sounds and
audio privately.
Scanner
• is an input device that
optically scans images,
printed text,handwriting or an
object and converts it to a
digital image or data.
Printer
• An output devices that
generates a hard copy of the
data.
Central Processing Unit (CPU)
• It
carries out the instructions of a
computer program by
performing the basic arithmetic,
logic, controlling, and
input/output (I/O) operations
specified by the instructions.
Flash drive
• Another example of storage
device. It is typically removable,
rewritable and much smaller
than an optical disc.
External Hard drive
• One of the storage device that is
used in transferring data from
one computer to another. It has
more storage capacity than
flashdrive
Projector
• an object that is used to project
rays of light, especially an
apparatus with a system of
lenses for projecting slides or
film onto a screen.
