What Is a Computer? (I) Nowadays, in most modernsocieties, almost everybody has an idea about what a computer is. We depend oncomputers in every aspect of our lives whether we know how to use one or not.But does everyone really know how a computer works inside? (II) A computer is an electronicmachine which processes data and provides the results of the processing asinformation. There are three basic steps in the computing process. The firstone is input, which consists of feeding data into the computers memory. Thencomes the processing: the program is run and the computer processes the data byperforming a set of instruction. The third and final step is the outputfurnished by the computer, which allows the user to see the results either inprinted form or on the screen. (III) The world of computers hascreated a specific language of its own. English words such as software andhardware are used worldwide and have been borrowed by many different languages.Software is information in the form of data and programs, and hardware refersto the electronic and mechanical parts that make up a computer system. (IV) Despite the constant presence ofcomputers in most societies, it is a great mistake to believe that everybody inthe world is computer-literate, i.e., is familiar with computers and knows howto use them properly. In some contemporary societies, many people still have noidea about the existence of computers, and even in the so-called developedcountries, there are lots of people who do not know or do not care about what acomputer is.
