Characteristics of Computer


Characteristics of Computer

Lets just enlist the characteristics of computer
  • Accuracy
  • Diligence
  • Speed
  • Remembering power
  • Versatility
  • Automatic
  • No IQ
  • No Feelings

Accuracy

As we already know that computer is an electronic machine. The name of this machine "Computer" explains much of the details about this heading. Since it is a computing device, it provides maximum accurate answer. Although it is an electronic device still it's calculated answer is not absolute accurate sometimes because it is a human product and also the input is given by the human beings which may be wrong.
Now the crux of the above discussion that you can write in any exam is that computer is a calculating device that provides the most accurate answer of different problems as compared to humans.

Diligence

Since computer is a machine, a non living thing, it can work for hours and hours without getting tired. This is the beauty of Computer, humans can't stand against a computer if it comes to consistency.
Nothing can ever distract a computer from its works. Humans are a lot different from computers, either it is people we are surrounded or may be different things happening around us we humans are easily distracted.

Speed

Computer works very fast. It hardly takes few seconds for calculations that humans takes hours to complete. For computers we consider time in micro or even nanoseconds, that's how much fast are the computers.

Remembering Power

Humans can remember something they are being interacted with for several times but in computer's case it has hard disks which can store tons and tons of data. Even we can extend its memory. As humans forget things by the time but computers keep their data stored util they are made to forget it, which is said to be deleting the data.

Versatility

Computers are totally versatile machines. They can perform different tasks on different occasions defined over different desires. 
Now if we talk about what you can write in quiz, Computers can perform different types of tasks, like they can be made to calculate sum of two integers next time they can be made to send a mail or play a video. 

Automatic

Humans may make mistake in doing something they are once told to do but on the other hand computers can repeat same process as they are told automatically with same efficiency they performed initially.

No IQ

Computer are totally dumb machines. They can't do anything on their own. They can't think on their own or they can't even decide anything on their own unless they are not told to do. As stupid as a rock which cannot move on its own the computers don't stand a chance against humans when it comes to decision making and intelligence.

No Feelings

Computers don't feel anything. They can't feel hunger, the can't feel pain, they don't get angry and they don't get happy. That is all just because computers are nonliving things.

Software Engineering Week 1

Software Engineering  Software engineering is an engineering discipline that concerns to all aspects of software development and software production. Mentioned above is the typical definition of software engineering that should develop a mind setup of a student who is wiling to learn development of software. Now when we talk about development of software, its life cycle pops into our minds which is being taught in almost every educational institution.  SDLC SDLC (Software Development Life Cycle) is the basic and core concept of Software Engineering. SDLC include few steps that should be followed strictly in order to develop a software. Most common terms used for those steps are: Analysis Designing Coding Testing Deployment and Maintenance   These steps are followed to develop a software. Firstly we should know what is a computer software. A computer software is nothing but computer program and associated documentation. Difference between computer scienc

Generations of Computer Part 1

Hello azumavenger  and  welcome to my blog. Today we are going to talk about the computer generations Computer Machine and Their Generations As we all know Computer is an electronic machine which solve different calculations precisely, accurately, in short span of time and more efficiently. Now the question is that why was such thing invented in first place. Humans are more intelligent than computers, they can make decisions and can conquer many things on the base of feelings then why was computer needed. The answer is simple to save human from labor work. Computers were nothing like what they are today The PC's to be precise Personal Computers we use today were not this efficient and cool back in John Mauchly's days. They were big, they consumed more power and were not easy to use. Diving deep, computer machines evolved from different versions to become what they are today, It started from ENIAC and is still being updated. Actually around 4 generations have be
