Across
- 4. a data compression technique in which no data are lost.
- 8. repetition of a process or set of instructions in a loop.
- 9. provides a general way to access a collection of data.
- 11. Data or signals that are sent into a computer for processing.
- 12. The order in which instructions are executed in a program.
- 14. block of code that dictates the flow of control in a program, such as loops or conditionals.
- 16. conditional statement in programming that executes certain code if a specified condition is true, and another set of code if it is false.
- 18. most basic unit of data in computing, representing a binary value of 0 or 1.
- 19. A set of electronic circuits on a small chip of semiconductor material, used in nearly all electronic equipment.

- 29. The main circuit board in a computer, connecting all components, including the CPU, memory, and storage.
- 30. A small piece of semiconductor material used in a computer to perform various functions, also called a microchip or integrated circuit.
- 31. gate that outputs true if at least one of the inputs is true.
- 32. Information processed or stored by a computer.
- 33. The physical components of a computer system, like the motherboard, CPU, and RAM.
