This document provides an introduction to computers by defining computers as electronic machines that store and manipulate data to extract information. It outlines the main components of a computer as the processing unit, memory unit, input units, output units, and storage unit. Each component is then described in more detail, with processing units containing an arithmetic logic unit and control unit, memory units differentiating between read-only memory and random access memory, and various input and output units being listed along with examples of storage units both internal and external to the computer.
