The object that is being described here is the computer. The computer can do a lot of things which is why some people are very dependent on their computers. There are many tasks that can be done easier with the use of a computer. Typing documents is an example.

It will take a lot more effort to write things in a handwritten note and it will also be harder to type things in a typewriter as compared to just typing down everything on a computer. It will also have the ability to just store data if needed. People also keep some of their media files on their computer to make sure that these media files will still be available even after they have turned off their gadgets.

An electronic machine that allows information to be input, processed and output is known as a computer. In other words, a computer is a machine that can easily be programmed to accept data from users, process the data to give useful information, and store the output in a storage device. The components of a computer are hardware, software, and users (people).

The hardware of a computer system refers to every fixed part of a computer that cannot be changed without any physical modification or replacement. Examples are hard disk, motherboard, etc. The second component of a computer system is the software. Software refers to a set of instructions that tell the computer what to do.

Unlike the hardware, the software of a computer is modifiable. The third component of a computer is the people. Although the users are not really part of a computer system, people are the most important part of it. The reason is that the computer system is useless if there are no users.

A computer allows data to be input, processed, and output. Modern computers contain word processor programs to write a document, report, or even a book. You can verify for spelling and grammar mistakes in your text, and you can see other articles, manuals, or other word processor files. You can connect the word processor with an external source, such as Outlook, Excel, or another source, and create labels. You can also produce flyers, handouts, or other pages with graphics and images. Many programs permit children to learn about a specific subject. Dictionary’s, thesaurus, encyclopedia, geographical or map software are all readily available on the internet. You can listen to music or create a music cd. MP3 files and the heightened popularity of sharing music legally makes computers an ideal way to obtain new music and listen to your favorite bands. You can also look at pictures, scan pictures, import pictures, and make pictures.
