The document outlines the classification of computers, defining them as electronic devices that process data into output information. It describes three main types: digital computers that work with binary data, analog computers that utilize continuous physical quantities, and hybrid computers that incorporate features of both analog and digital systems.

1. CLASSIFICATION OF COMPUTERS

3. A COMPUTER IS
AN ELECTRONIC
DEVICE THAT
PROCESSES RAW
DATA TO GIVE
INFORMATION AS
OUTPUT.

4. TYPES OF COMPUTERS
Digital computer
any of a class of devices capable of solving
problems by processing information in
discrete form. It operates on data, including
magnitudes, letters, and symbols, that are
expressed in binary code—i.e., using only the
two digits 0 and 1. By counting, comparing,
and manipulating.
Analog Computer
An analog computer is a type of computer
that uses physical quantities, like
electrical voltages or currents, to solve
mathematical problems. It works with
continuously changing values, unlike
digital computers that use discrete
numbers like 0 and 1.

5. HYBRID COMPUTERS
A hybrid computer is a type of computer that combines the features of both analog and
digital computers. It uses analog techniques for specific parts of its operations and
digital techniques for others.
