Computer System
Computer system is defined as combination of components
designed to process data and store files. It consists of four major hardware
components such as input devices, output devices, processor and storage
devices. A computer system require hardware, software and users to fully
function.
Input and Input Devices
Input is any data and instructions entered into the memory
of a computer. There are four types of input which are : text, graphics, audio
and video.
Input devices is any hardware component that allows users to
enter data and instructions into a computer. The examples of input devices are
keyboard, mouse, scanner, barcode reader and joystick.

operations called the machine cycle:
CPU is n electronic components ion a computer’s motherboard
that interprets and carries out the basic instructions that operates the computer.
It has the same important as the brain to human being. The examples of microprocessor are Intel Pentium IV, AMD
Athlon and G4.
