  1. 2. a multipurpose device that accepts input, processes data, stores data, and produces output, all according to a series of stored commands
  2. 4. manipulation of data by computers in a variety of ways like calculating, solving, decision making,etc.
  3. 6. binary digit- a 1 or a 0
  4. 8. a category of computer that, at the time of its construction, is one of the fastest computers in the world.
  5. 10. a super-thin slice of semiconducting material packet with microscopic circuit elements, such as wires, transistors, capacitors, logic gates, and resistors.
  6. 12. this is the computer part that sends all the data to the monitor so you can see a picture or color that are produced by a computer
  7. 15. works with continuous data. Example: A dimmer switch connected to a light; is has more than an on or off state.
  8. 17. a device that can input data or help the user interact with the computer
  9. 18. refers to symbols that represent facts, objects, and ideas. It's what information is called in a computer
  10. 19. the computer part is the main storage area for a personal computer

  1. 1. holds the instructions on how your computer should start itself. Is powered by a watch-sized battery and is known as the Basic Input Output System
  2. 3. the results produced by the computer can be display, transmitted, or printed on one of these.
  3. 5. its name is Random Access Memory, also known as a temporary holding area for data.
  4. 7. a computer that "serves" data to computers connected to a network. Can be a specially designed computer or it may look like regular computer.
  5. 9. whatever is typed, submitted, or transmitted to a computer system
  6. 11. DEVICE an electronic tool that can retrieve, store, process, or send data; such as digits 1 and 0
  7. 13. a temporary holding area for data
  8. 14. the main circuit board that houses al essential chips and provides connecting circuitry between them
  9. 16. sometimes described as the computer's brain, this is where most processing takes place.
