  2. A computer is an electronic tool for inputting, processing, storing, manipulating, and retrieving information. • Numbers, letters voice or photographs can be taken as data. • Computers are electronic machines that get data, process and returns this data to information. • A computer does not create information Basic Computer Concepts

  3. Input Four basic arithmetic process (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) Logical processes Output Memory The BasicDataProcessing:
