Build a Computer Computers are one of those technologies that‚ as the years pass‚ get more complicated yet simpler at the same time. The truth is‚ a person need not know anything at all of transistors‚ capacitor or the whole bunch to "build" a computer. All you really need to know are two important things. One is to always keep yourself (electrostatically) grounded‚ and secondly‚ you need to know how to put a jigsaw puzzle together. Now one would ask what a jigsaw puzzle has to do with computers‚ and

Computer Multimedia Sam Quesinberry Computers have come a long way very fast since there start in the 1940’s. In the beginning they were mainly used for keeping financial records by banks and insurance companies‚ and for mathematical computations by engineers and the U.S. Military. However‚ exciting new applications have developed rapidly in the last few years. Two of these areas is Computer Graphics and sound. Computer graphics is the ability of the computer to display‚ store and transmit

years. The modern computers we are all familiar with can trace their roots back to simple computational machines that seem far removed from what we think of as a computer today. Simple Computers • By definition‚ a computer is any device capable of performing mathematical equations or calculations. Therefore‚ many simple devices such as an abacus (which dates back to at least 300 BCE) or a slide rule (first made in England in the 1630s) are the forerunners of today’s modern computers. The Calculating

Computer Packages 11 Graphic Packages: It is important to recall that the early graphics software performed creditably on production of simple bar graphs and funny little people made of squares. However‚ the modern day graphics software and hardware is so advanced such that it is sometimes difficult to tell if computer or trick photograph produced a picture. Computer graphics as often seen in advertisement‚ Logos‚ and sports broadcast on televisions are products of computer graphic applications

Computer programming (often shortened to programming) is a process that leads from an original formulation of a computing problem to executable programs. It involves activities such as analysis‚ understanding‚ thinking‚ and generically solving such problems resulting in an algorithm‚ verification of requirements of the algorithm including its correctness and its resource consumption‚ implementation (commonly referred to as coding[1][2]) of the algorithm in a target programming language. Source code is

Argument for using a computer With the popularity of computers‚ almost every family has one computer. Some parents‚ for various reasons‚ let children use computers for learning‚ relaxing‚ and so on. However‚ children between ages of 6 and 16 are in the growth stage. Simply playing for a couple of minutes is acceptable‚ while using computers for a long time should be discouraged for that it will do harm to children’s eyes‚ discipline‚ self-control and physical growth‚ which mainly reflects in the
