Computer is an electronic device which is capable of performing various operation such as arithmetical and logical operation. It is simple process the given input data and gives output processed data as an output. It can accepts thousands of instructions, data and can performed operation with highly accuracy. The input data can be of any format such as text , images , videos or any other format. Overall computer has 3 major operations ; take input, process and gives output.
Data:
The term data is used defined machine readable information from textual human readable information . A data can be a word , a character , any numeric value etc. A data can be of various types such as integers, floating, point number, character, strings and arrays.
