2. CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. It is the processor or brain
of the computer. It makes calculations and processes data into in-
formation. The CPU controls all inputs and output devices and
consists of 3 units. They are :
(i) ALU – Arithmetic Logic Unit performs the tasks of arithmetic
calculations and logical operations.
(ii) CU – Control Unit controls all the operations of the computer.
(iii) MU – Memory Unit is used to receive, hold and deliver data
as per the instructions from the control unit.
3. System Software and Application Software are the two types of
softwares of a computer system.
4. In a computer database, the data is stored in the form of bits and
bytes.
(i) Bit : A bit is the short form of Binary Digit which indicates
whether the computer circuits are ON or OFF ( 1 or 0).
(ii) Byte : A byte is a unit of data that is eight bits long and is used
to represent a character such as letter, number or typographic
symbol. A byte is stored by using some bits in a predefined
combination called bit patterns.
(iii) Field : A field refers to a collection of bytes that includes
information about a thing. For example : name of friends, their
addresses and phone number etc.
(iv) Database : A database refers to the collection of all files in an
