Modern computers have several key characteristics: 1. They can process information and perform calculations at tremendous speeds within seconds. 2. They can perform calculations, complex problem solving, and information retrieval repeatedly over large amounts of data with perfect accuracy. 3. They have the capability to store vast amounts of data for long periods of time and access it whenever needed.

4. SpeedSpeed
04/19/19
Computer receives information & processes it at tremendous speed.
The time taken to execute an instruction is just A few seconds.

5. AccuracyAccuracy
04/19/19
COMPUTERS DO THE CALCULATIONS OF DATA, CALCULATION OF
COMPLEX PROBLEMS AND RETRIEVAL OF INFORMATION WITHOUT
ANY ERRORS REPEATEDLY OVER A LARGE NUMBER OF TIMES AND
FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME TOO.

6. 04/19/19
COMPUTERS HAVE THE CAPABILITY OF STORING DATA OR INFORMATION.THIS
COULD BE STORED FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME AND CAN BE ACCESSED AT
ANY TIME.THIS FACILITATES PROCESSING OF PROBLEMS INVOLVING HEAVY
DATA
StorageStorage

7. VersatilityVersatility
04/19/19
COMPUTERS CAN BE USED FOR A GOOD NUMBER OF JOBS AND THEY ARE
CAPABLE OF PERFORMING ALMOST ANY TYPE OF JOB.THEY CAN BE LINKED
WITH ANY OTHER MACHINE SO AS TO SERVE AUTOMATIC CONTROLS OR
REMOTE CONTROL OPERATIONS.

8. DeligenceDeligence
04/19/19
BEING AN ELECTRONIC MACHINE THE COMPUTER DOES NOT SUFFER FROM
BOREDOM,TIREDNESS OR LACK OF CONCENTRATION. EVEN IF YOU GIVE THE
COMPUTER MILLIONS OF CALCULATIONS TO SOLVE, THEN ALSO IT WILL
CALCULATE EVEN THE LAST CALCULATION WITH THE SAME SPEED AS IT
WORKED FOR THE FIRST ONE.

9. Artificial IntelligenceArtificial Intelligence

A COMPUTER DOES NOT HAVE ANY INTELLIGENCE,ANY THINKING
POWER OF ITS OWN AND HENCE, IT CANNOT TAKE ANY DECISION OF ITS
OWN.

10. No FeelingsNo Feelings
Computer does not have emotions, knowledge, experience, feeling.
