Answer the questions: 1. What does the term “computer” describe? 2. What are five components of computer system? 3. What is connectivity? 4. What’s the difference between hardware and software?
1. A computer is a programmable device for storing and processing data.
2. Five basic components of computer system are input unit, output unit, storage unit, CPU (central processing unit), ALU (arithmetic & logic Unit) and control unit.
3. Connectivity is the transfer of information between computer devices (hardware and software).
4. The difference is that the hardware is a set of electronic and mechanical devices located in the computer case (and not only) and necessary to run PC (and expand its functionality), and the software is a set of programs stored in the computer's memory.
