COMPUTER MAIN PARTS

EXTERNAL PARTS Is the physical parts or components of a computer, such as the monitor, mouse, keyboard, computer data storage, hard disk drive

MONITOR The computer's monitor, or screen, is the window into the workings of the computer

TOWER Is the central brain of the computer. It holds all the major internal components needed for the machine to function properly

KEYBOARD The keyboard allows typed input into the computer

MOUSE The mouse allows movement of the cursor on the screen

SCANNER Is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image

WEB CAMERA Is a video camera that feeds or streams its image in real time to or through a computer to computer network

PRINTER A printer transfers data from a computer onto paper

SPEAKERS A device that converts analog audio signals into the equivalent air vibrations in order to make audible sound

MICROPHONE A device that converts sound waves into analogous electrical waves

HARDWARE INTERNAL COMPONENTS in actuality there are only 10 main parts: - Motherboard - Processor - Heat sink - Fan - Memory - Power Supply - Cables - Hard Drive - CD/DVD Drive - Cards (Video, Sound, Network)

MOTHERBOARD The mother board connects all the components in the computer

CPU (CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT) is known as the brain or the core of the computer, it controls the processing of the computer

HARD DISK Is a non-volatile storage device which stores digitally encoded data on rapidly rotating platters with magnetic surfaces

OPTICAL UNIT There are two types of optical drives: the DVD drive and CD-ROM drive

POWER SUPPLY The power supply supplies all the computer components with electricity

EXPANSION CARD Is a printed circuit board that can be inserted into an expansion slot of a computer motherboard or backplane to add functionality to a computer system

RAM (RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY) The Ram is the main memory of the computer and is fond in the mother board

ROM (READ-ONLY MEMORY) Is a class of storage medium used in computers and other electronic devices

SOFTWARE Is any set of machinereadable instructions that directs a computer's processor to perform specific operations

OPERATING SYSTEM (OS) Is software that manages computer hardware and software resources and provides common services for computer programs

COMPILERS Is a computer program (or set of programs) that transforms source code written in a programming language (the source language) into another computer language

APPLICATIONS Is a set of computer programs designed to permit the user to perform a group of coordinated functions, tasks, or activities

ANTIVIRUS Is computer software used to prevent, detect and remove malicious software

TEXT PROCESSING Is an electric or electronic device, or computer software application, that, as directed by the user, performs word processing
