What is Computing

Physical components that process incoming binary data and emit electrical signals are logic gates

To allow the computer to store information or programs.

Is something that performs calculations by following and executing specific instructions to solve a problem.

Operating Systems like Microsoft Windows, manages how software uses hardware

During World War II John Mauchly and Presper Eckert helped design the Analytical Engine as 1st general purpose computer

First known computing device was the Analytical Engine

All computing devices do these 4 things: Take Input, Store It, Process It, and Output It

To allow computers to connect and communicate with other computers.

RAM will store information if the power is OFF

Invented in 1950 as the first modern computer with a keyboard as an input device

Which of the following is the main component that connects all of the physical parts of a computer together?

One of the first uses of computers was to help explorers navigate

Because the amount of transistors will double a computers processing speed will double every 2 years

A human readable way to write computer instructions

The military was a driving force to the development of computers

A group of 2 or more devices connected to the same router is considered a what

CPU stands for Central Processing Unit

With binary, a 1 or 0 is called what

A router is considered a storage device

What kind of device is a mouse

This allows a user to access the internet

What kind of a device is a speaker

Considered the first founder of computer programs?

This person holds the patent for the first color PC monitor, and the first gigahertz chip.

This enables you to interact with the computer using application displays and icons rather than a text-based console.

What kind of device is a web camera

To allow the computer to display or communicate the result of a computation

A number system with only 1's and 0's that give instructions to computers is called

Business's ability to automate the production of goods was a driving force to the computers development

Which of the following are programs that run on your computer and helps the user perform tasks.

Credited with creating the world's first compiler, A-O and helped develop the worlds first programming language, COBOL.

To allow the user to give data or information to the computer.

Computers are able to perform tasks by using logic

Theorized and started creating the Analytical Engine which was never fully built

A computer that uses enzymes and DNA strands to perform specific computations. Can store billions time more data.

The simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions.

Theorized that machines could store information and use algorithms to compute information. Could be taught to learn

Three main components of Hardware: Processor, Binary, and RAM

BIOS stands for Binary Input Output Statistics

Foreign Language Translation is considered an application of Artificial Intelligence
