What is Computer? Introduction of Computer
  • Hello friends! Today we are going to give you a
    detailed introduction of computers. There are
    people who still do not know much about
    computers. They still wonder about what is
    computer, how it works, what are the parts of
    computer, who invented the computer? And the list
    goes on. So lets get started.

What is a Computer? Computer Definition
  • The ultimate electronic device ever made by
    humans is Computer!Yes, an invention that has
    changed the way of living lives. It has made
    great impacts on our everyday life and
    civilization. Science and technology is becoming
    advanced day by day due to the usage of
    computers.We can say Everything is in the
    Computer and Computer is everywhere. Because
    we get all the information very easily with the
    help of computers. It helps in completing tasks
    with technology and the internet.Computer is
    derived from the Latin word Computare that means
    to calculate or find the result of some operation
    on numeric and non-numeric values.

Some of the Most Accurate Definitions of Computer
  • Computer Definition  A computer is a machine
    that performs tasks according to certain
    instructions. It is an electronic device that is
    designed to work with information.
  • Definition of Computer  A computer can be
    defined as a multipurpose, programmable,
    electronic data processing device that is capable
    of accepting input, processing it, and producing
    information as output at enormous speed.
  • Simple Definition of Computer  A computer is an
    electronic device, which can perform computation
    as well as logical action at enormous speed.

5
Some of the Most Accurate Definitions of Computer
  • Computer Network Definition  A computer may be
    defined as a machine that can solve problems by
    accepting data, performing certain operations,
    and presenting results of those operations in
    sequential instructions. Such a set of sequenced
    instructions, which cause a computer program to
    perform particular operations, is called a
    program.
  • A computer can be defined as a programmable
    digital automatic machine, which takes input from
    the user, processes it, and gives the output
    (information) in the desired form to the user and
    stores it if necessary.

6
Computer Full Form Full Form of Computer
  • Technically there is no full form of computer.
    But for their conveniences, people has made an
    imaginary full form of computer and that is
  • C  CommonlyO OperatedM MachineP
    ParticularlyU Used forT Technical andE
    EducationalR Research

7
Father of Computer Who Invented Computer
  • Charles Babbage, an English mechanical engineer
    and polymath, originated the concept of a
    programmable computer. Considered the father of
    computer, he conceptualized and invented the
    first mechanical computer in the early 19th
    century.

8
History of Computer
  • It is believed that the development of computer
    started from 18311835 from the idea of a
    Perpetual Calendar machine, which, though a
    system of pulleys and cylinders and over, could
    predict the perpetual calendar for every year
    from AD 0 (that is, 1 BC) to AD 4000, keeping
    track of leap years and varying day length. But
    officially the development of computers has been
    classified according to the generation. These are
    mainly divided into 5 parts.

9
Generation of Computer What is Computer
Generation?
  • Computer generations are based on when major
    technological changes in computers occurred, like
    the use of vacuum tubes, transistors, and the
    microprocessor. As of 2020, there are five
    generations of the computer.

10
First Generation of Computer 1940-1956 Vacuum
Tubes
  • Early digital computers used vacuum tubes as a
    major piece of technology to perform the
    calculations. They were quite problematic because
    of the big size, in terms of consuming energy,
    causing heat problems and resulting in
    malfunction many times.Other examples of
    first-generation computers include the ENIAC,
    EDSAC, IBM 701, and Manchester Mark 1.Machine
    language was used in these. For example, UNIVAC
    and ENIAC computers.

11
Second Generation of Computer 1956-1963
Transistors
  • From 1955 onwards, vacuum tubes were replaced by
    transistors in computer designs. It was a new
    hype and rise to the second generation of
    computers.Transistors had their own advantages
    as they were smaller, and required less power
    than vacuum tubes, so give off less heat and
    resulted in well functioned computers.The first
    computer to use transistors was the TX-0 and was
    introduced in 1956. Other computers that used
    transistors include the IBM 7070, Philco Transac
    S-1000, and RCA 501.In this technology, high
    level programming languages ??like COBOL and
    FORTRAN were used.

12
Third Generation of Computer 1964-1971
Integrated Circuits
  • The next great advance in computing power came
    with the advent of the integrated circuit (IC).
    It was a great invention by Jack Kilby and Robert
    Noyce.IC helped in reducing the size of
    computers even more than second-generation
    computers. The computers started working
    amazingly faster. In this technology, the
    transistors were small sized and inserted inside
    the silicon chip, called Semiconductor. It
    resulted in an increased processing capacity of
    the computer. ICs are still used in computers
    today.

13
Fourth Generation of Computers 1971-1985
Microprocessors
  • Microprocessor is the hero of the fourth
    generation of computers. More commonly known as a
    CPU. It came with a revolutionary invention of
    the desktop computer and fit easily on a desk and
    for the introduction of the laptop.Microprocessor
    usage immensely increased the efficiency of the
    computer and was able to do very big calculations
    in seconds.Some of the earliest computers to use
    a microprocessor include the Altair 8800, IBM
    5100, and Micral. Todays computers still use a
    microprocessor, despite the fourth generation
    being considered to have ended in 2010.

14
Fifth Generation of Computer 1985-Present
Artificial Intelligence
  • The era or the beginning to use AI (artificial
    intelligence). This is the technology which we
    are using today in our mobiles, laptops, tablets
    computers. AI has made almost everything
    possible through our phones and laptops as Speech
    Recognition, Parallel Processing, and Quantum
    Calculation etc.The world famous example of AI
    in computers is IBMs supercomputer Watson. It
    was even featured on the TV show Jeopardy as a
    contestant for question answeringApples Siri
    on the iPhone and Microsofts Cortana on Windows
    8 and Windows 10 computers are other examples of
    companies using AI technology. The Google Search
    Engine also utilizes AI to process user searches.

15
Parts of Computer Computer Parts
  • A general-purpose computer has four main
    components that make up a typical, present-day
    computer. These are The Arithmetic Logic Unit
