 "Computer system" redirects here. For other uses, see Computer (disambiguation) and
Computer system (disambiguation).
 Computer
 Computers and computing devices from different eras
 A computer is a device that can be instructed to carry out arbitrary sequences of arithmetic or
logical operations automatically. The ability of computers to follow generalized sets of
operations, called programs, enables them to perform an extremely wide range of tasks.
 Such computers are used as control systems for a very wide variety of industrial and
consumer devices. This includes simple special purpose devices like microwave ovens and
remote controls, factory devices such as industrial robots and computer assisted design, but
also in general purpose devices like personal computers and mobile devices such as
smartphones. The Internet is run on computers and it connects millions of other computers.
 Since ancient times, simple manual devices like the abacus aided people in doing calculations.
Early in the Industrial Revolution, some mechanical devices were built to automate long
tedious tasks, such as guiding patterns for looms. More sophisticated electrical machines did
specialized analog calculations in the early 20th century. The first digital electronic calculating
machines were developed during World War II. The speed, power, and versatility of
computers has increased continuously and dramatically since then.
 Conventionally, a modern computer consists of at least one processing element, typically a
central processing unit (CPU), and some form of memory. The processing element carries out
arithmetic and logical operations, and a sequencing and control unit can change the order of
operations in response to stored information. Peripheral devices include input devices
(keyboards, mice, joystick, etc.), output devices (monitor screens, printers, etc.), and
input/output devices that perform both functions (e.g., the 2000s-era touchscreen). Peripheral
devices allow information to be retrieved from an external source and they enable the result
of operations to be saved and retrieved.
TYPES
 Types
 Computers are typically classified based on their uses:
 Based on uses
 Analog computer
 Digital computer
 Hybrid computer
 Based on sizes
 Smartphone
 Microcomputer
 Personal computer
 Laptop
 Minicomputer
 Mainframe computer
 Supercompute
HARDWARE
 Hardware
 Main articles: Computer hardware, Personal computer
hardware, Central processing unit, and Microprocessor
 Play media
 Video demonstrating the standard components of a
"slimline" computer
 The term hardware covers all of those parts of a
computer that are tangible physical objects. Circuits,
computer chips, graphic cards, sound cards, memory
(RAM), motherboard, displays, power supplies, cables,
keyboards, printers and "mice" input devices are all
hardware.
D
 Input devices
 When unprocessed data is sent to the computer with the help of input devices, the data is
processed and sent to output devices. The input devices may be hand-operated or
automated. The act of processing is mainly regulated by the CPU. Some examples of input
devices are:
 Computer keyboard
 Digital camera
 Digital video
 Graphics tablet
 Image scanner
 Joystick
 Microphone
 Mouse
 Overlay keyboard
 Real-time clock
 Trackball
 Touchscreen
 Output devices
 The means through which computer gives output are known as output devices. Some
examples of output devices are:
 Computer monitor
 Printer
 PC speaker
 Projector
 Sound card
 Video card
