                       #Data: A fact or figure that stored in the computer
                       #RAM: A temporary memory







                                    Suppose,  you could  create  a virtual memory  palace  in your  mind  using  a
                                    computer. What rooms and objects would you include to help you remember
                                    important information, like math formulas or historical facts?

                    ▶   A computer stores data, instructions, and information inside a memory, which is called computer
                      memory.
                    ▶   There are two types of memory available: primary memory and secondary memory.
                    ▶   Primary memory is the main memory from which the CPU can access data directly.
                    ▶   RAM is a temporary memory and ROM is a permanent memory.
                    ▶   Secondary memory is used to store large amounts of data permanently.
                    ▶  The basic unit for measuring the memory of a computer is byte.











                  1.  Tick ( ) the correct option.
                      a.  Identify the basic unit for measuring the memory of a computer.

                          (i)  Bit                                         (ii)  Byte

                         (iii)  Kilobyte                                  (iv)  Megabyte

                      b.  Which type of memory is volatile and loses its data when the computer is turned off?

                          (i)  ROM                                         (ii)  RAM

                         (iii)  Hard Disk                                 (iv)  CD-ROM
                      c.  Which of the following is not a type of ROM?

                          (i)  PROM                                        (ii)  EPROM

                         (iii)  DRAM                                      (iv)  EEPROM
