                 A computer is an electronic device made up of different components. It allows you
                 to enter data through input devices like a keyboard or mouse, processes this data
                 with the CPU, and displays the results on a monitor or prints them using a printer.




















                    HARDWARE

                 All the physical components of a computer system are known as hardware. These
                 parts can be seen and touched. Some hardware components, like the keyboard,

                 monitor, and mouse, are visible from the outside. Others, such as the CPU and hard
                 disk, are located inside the CPU box/cabinet.
                 Hardware devices are classified into the following categories:
