The document discusses various input devices used with computers. It defines an input device as what is used to get instructions into the computer to be processed by the CPU. Some of the main input devices discussed include the keyboard, mouse, joystick, light pen, graphic tablet, scanner, MICR, barcode reader, and QR code. The keyboard is the most widely used input device and contains keys to enter numbers, letters, and special characters. A mouse is a pointing device that allows users to click and drag on a screen and its motions are converted to binary signals for the computer.

WORKING OF A COMPUTER SYSYTEM Definition of working of a computer system :- A computer is a programmable electronic device that works according to the instructions given by us. It has the ability to accept data process it and give a useful output .We can also say that the computer is a machine that follows The IPO now I it is also known as( input process output cycle) the input devices are used give instructions to computer which then draws is by the CPU which is( the central processing unit) now the result of processing is displayed on the output devices .Computer makes use of different types of memory to store data and instructions LANGUAGE A COMPUTER UNDERSTANDS A computer runs on electricity and understands only two states which is on and off now on is it a presented by 1 and off is represented by 0. The computer understands the language of only zeros and ones. It is called the binary language or the machine language. Input device data instruction from us and convert them into binary form that the computer can understand. Output device takes data in binary form from the computer and converts it into the form that we can read. INPUT DEVICES Definition of input devices -The input device is used to get instructions to the computer and then process it by the CPU . Use -The input device is used to get instructions to the computer and then process it by the CPU . Eg: Key board ,mouse, joystick KEYBOARD Keyboard is the most widely used input device, it has several keys for entering add switch numbers and special characters. When you press a key the code of the key is sent to the CPU in binary form. A keyboard can be connected to the computer through a cord or through a wireless connection. A mouse, is a pointing device with two or more buttons. We give
MOUSE - instructions to the computer by clicking on the mouse button.
User for mouse - 1.It lets us point and select things on the monitor 2.It lets us draw and paint 3.It let.us drag one thing from one place to another on the monitor The mouse converts the motions of hands into binary signals so that the computer can understand the mouse pointer on the monitor moves according to the movement of mouse. Types of mouse : - •wireless mouse- a wireless mouse is not attached to the computer through a wire instead it communicates with a computer using the signals like the way a remote control is used to change channels on a television. •Optical mouse- an optical mouse has a red light under it
JOY STICK
A joystick is an input device consisting of a stick
that is attached to the base .the stick move s and controls the movement of a pointer or some other display symbols. Used for video games . LIGHT PEN GRAPHIC TABLET SCANNER MICR BARCODE READER QR CODE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN QR CODE & BARCODE READER Qr code Barcode reader OCR –OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITION
