How Does Computer Work

Nur inayah's presentation explains how computers work. A computer receives input through devices like a keyboard, mouse, or scanner. The central processing unit (CPU) then processes the data and sends output to devices like a monitor or printer. The main internal components of a computer that allow it to function include the CPU for processing, RAM for temporary data storage, hard disk drive for long-term storage, a motherboard to connect the components, video and sound cards for multimedia, and a network adapter for internet access. Nur inayah hopes this overview of computer components was helpful.

Hello, My name is Nur inayah, my registratio number is 191181, now i

will present and explain about how does a computer work.

A computer is a machine composed of hardware and software


components. A computer receives data through an input unit based on
the instructions it is given and after it processes the data, it sends it back
through an output device.

The input devices of a computer can depend on the type of computer we


are dealing with but most typically we will find a mouse, keyboard,
scanner or even applications (software) installed on the computer. Once
the data has been received, the central processing unit (CPU) along with
the help of other components, takes over and processes the information
it was given. Once the data is ready, it will be sent back through an
output device which can be a monitor, speaker, printer, ports, etcetera.

Here are the main components of a computer, namely :

CPU – or Central Processing Unit is considered the most important


component in a computer. It handles most operations that make it
function, by processing instructions and giving signals out to other
components. The CPU is the main bridge between all the computer’s
major parts.

RAM – Random Access Memory, is a computer component where data


used by the operating system and software applications store data so
that the CPU can process them quickly. Everything stored on RAM is
lost if the computer is shut off. Depending on the applications you use,
there is typically a maximum limit of RAM you will need for the computer
to function properly.

HDD – Also known as Hard Disk Drive, it is the component where


photos, apps, documents and such are kept. Although they are still
being used, we have much faster types of storage devices such as solid
state drives (SSD) that are also more reliable.

Motherboard –The Motherboard acts as the home for all other


components, allows them to communicate with each other and gives
them power in order to function. There are components that don’t require
a physical connection to the Motherboard in order to work, such as
Bluetooth or Wi-Fi but, if there is no connection or signal what so ever,
the computer won’t know it’s there.

Video and Sound Cards – Two components which help the user interact
with the computer. Although one can use a computer with a missing
sound card, it’s not really possible to use it without a video card. The
sound card is used mainly to play sound through a speaker. However, a
video card is used to send images on the screen. Without it, it would be
like looking at an empty monitor.

Network adapter – Even though it is not actually required to operate the


computer, the Network adapter improves the user’s experience as it
provides access to the internet. Modern computers with operating
systems such as Windows 10 will not offer the user all of its features
without an Internet connection.

I think that’s enough with my presentation, if there is less or more please


forgive and hopefully understand. Thankyouuuuuuu
