Tag: Computer
A computer is an electronic device that stores, retrieves, and processes data according to instructions in a variable program1. The term “computer” once meant a person who did computations, but now it almost universally refers to automated electronic machinery2. Computers are used for various purposes, including numerical calculations, general-purpose information processing, and large data handling. They are also capable of learning and adapting as they operate. A computer is an electronic device that stores, retrieves, and processes data according to instructions in a variable program1.
