Hardware/input

Picture of Hardware Devices

Parts of a computer system that we can see and touch on that computer part, such parts
are called hardware.
Hardware parts such as keyboard, mouse, CPU, monitor, printer, scanner.
Keyboard - The keyboard is the hardware device of the computer and the keyboard is
the main part of the computer through which the user inputs the data in the computer.
Mouse - A computer mouse is also a hardware device that is also known as a pointing
device. With the use of the mouse, the user's work is done in minutes.
CPU - The full name of the CPU is Central Processing Unit, it is also a hardware device.
CPU is also called the brain of the computer.

Monitor - The monitor is a screen and the monitor is also a hardware device, using
which the user sees an output result.
Printer - A printer is also a hardware device that is used to print a soft copy.
Scanner - A scanner is also a hardware device that is used to scan hard copies of any
kind.
Let us understand in detail about computer hardware.
The hardware of the computer is divided into four parts which are as follows.
1. Input Hardware
2. Output Hardware
3. Processing and Memory Hardware
4. Secondary Storage Hardware
Input Hardware
Input hardware that is used to input data into the computer, those parts of the
computer are called input hardware.
There are many types of input hardware devices, whose names are given below.
 Graphics Tablets  Barcode reader  Joystick
 Video Capture  Digital camera  Keyboard
Hardware  MIDI keyboard  Cameras
 Trackballs  Gamepad  Microphone
 Mouse  Electronic  Punch card
 Scanner Whiteboard reader
 Webcam  OMR  MICR (Magnetic
 Touchpad’s  OCR Ink character reader)
 Microphone  Pen Input  Magnetic Tape
Drive

2. Output Hardware
By the way, the output hardware device from which the user gets the output is called
the output hardware device.

There are many types of output hardware devices which are given below.
 Monitor
 Printer
 Plotters
 Headphones
 Computer Speakers
 Projector
 GPS
 Sound Card
 Video Card
 Braille Reader
 Visual Display Unit
 LCD Projection Panels
 Speech-Generating Device
Processing and Memory Hardware
A hardware device that processes that data before executing any instruction, and after
processing, keeps that data as a temporary save.

Some name of Processing and Memory Hardware Unit is given below.

 Central Processing Unit ( CPU )
 Motherboard
 Random Access Memory ( RAM )
Secondary Storage Hardware device
The device of a computer system that is used to store the data permanently is called
Secondary Storage Hardware.

Secondary storage devices are also of many types. whose names are given below.
 Hard Disk Drive 
 Solid State Drive
 Pen Drive
I hope you understand.
2. Software

Pictures of Computer Software

Software is a set of programs. Many computer programs combine to form a single
software. In which the user interacts with the computer system with the help of software.
The programs of the computer that we can see but cannot touch, that program is called
software.
There are two types of computer software, whose names are given below.
1. System Software
2. Application Software
1. System Software
The software that comes with the computer system, which is used by the computer for
its work, that software is called system software.
There are many types of System software which name is given below.
An operating system is system software such as...
 Windows 
 macOS
 Android
 Linux
 Unix
 DOS
2. Application Software
The software that we use according to the need, that software are called applications
software.

There are many types of application software, whose names are given below.
 Antivirus Software
 Tally
 MS Office
 Photoshop
 VLC Player
 Web Browser
 7 Zip
These all are examples of applications software.
I hope you understand.
3. User
 Picture of User
The person who uses the computer is called
the user. Basically, the computer is used by
a human, no robot uses the computer.
Therefore the user is also an important
element of the computer because without
the user the computer cannot do anything.
Although computers can be used by people
of any age at any time and anywhere but,
basically two types of people use computers
more.

Professional people and
other Unprofessional people.

Professional People - People who use computers to do their professional work. For
example - programmers, engineers, college professors, etc.

Unprofessional people - People who use computers to do their personal work. For
example - a common boy and girl and can be anyone else.
I hope you understand.
