Parts of a computer Hardware and Software How do computers work? Parts of a computer Hardware and Software

Parts of a computer The computer is made of Programs or instructions that tell the machine how to work = SOFTWARE e.g. Operating system, Word… Physical parts of the computer= HARDWARE e.g. monitor… & All the parts work together to make the machine work

CPU CPU stands for CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT The CPU processes data and makes sure you can do several tasks at the same time E.g. listen to music whilst you are doing your homework on Word, and searching on the Internet.

Parts of a computer - HARDWARE Parts that ENTER data - INPUT Parts that STORE data - STORAGE Parts that PROCESS data Parts that PRESENT data - OUPUT
