An input device is any device that provides input to a computer. There are dozens of possible input devices, but the two most common ones are a keyboard and mouse. Every key you press on the keyboard and every movement or click you make with the mouse sends a specific input signal to the computer. These commands allow you to open programs, type messages, drag objects, and perform many other functions on your computer.

Three steps is probably minimal, and not really sufficient to describe the processing a CPU performs. If you have to use 3, probably fetch (the instruction), execute (the instruction) and store (write the results). However, this skips fetching the operands (if any). Most instructions require one or more operands. If you assume the instruction is already fetched, you might classify the three steps as fetch the operand(s) (read them from memory), execute the instruction (perform an operation on the operands) and store (write the results to memory).

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, refers to computer components and recording media that retain digital data. Data storage is one of the core functions and fundamental components of computers. In contemporary usage, memory usually refers to semiconductor storage random-access memory, typically DRAM (Dynamic-RAM). Memory can refer to other forms of fast but temporary storage. Storage refers to storage devices and their media not directly accessible by the CPU, (secondary or tertiary storage) — typically hard disk drives, optical disc drives, and other devices slower than RAM but more permanent. Historically, memory has been called main memory, real storage or internal memory while storage devices have been referred to as secondary storage, external memory or auxiliary/peripheral storage. The distinctions are fundamental to the architecture of computers. The distinctions also reflect an important and significant technical difference between memory and mass storage devices, which has been blurred by the historical usage of the term storage. Nevertheless, this article uses the traditional nomenclature. Many different forms of storage, based on various natural phenomena, have been invented. So far, no practical universal storage medium exists, and all forms of storage have some drawbacks. Therefore a computer system usually contains several kinds of storage, each with an individual purpose.

Output from computer processing, the work that has been completed, may take the form of a printed document, magnetic tape, or magnetic disk or diskette. In all cases, you are responsible for and must ensure that all completed jobs run successfully. In addition, you are responsible for identifying and coordinating the various outputs for each job, and for initiating their correct distribution. Speakers Printer LCD
