    Study Notes

    Classification of Computers by Type

    • Computers can be classified based on their size, type, generation, and purpose.
    • There are three main types of computers based on their operation: digital, analog, and hybrid computers.

    Digital Computers

    • Process countable objects.
    • Examples: mainframe computers, minicomputers, microcomputers, and calculators.

    Analog Computers

    • Process uncountable objects.
    • Use substances such as liquids or springs to measure values.
    • Examples: thermometer, stethoscope, speedometer, liquid dispenser meter, and electricity meter.

    Key Concepts

    • "Count" is used for countable objects.
    • "Measure" is used for uncountable objects.

    Types of Animals

    • There are five main types of animals: mammals, birds, amphibians, fish, and reptiles.

    Mammals

    • Mammals are warm-blooded animals.
    • Female mammals produce milk and give birth to their young ones.
    • Examples of mammals include bears and humans.

    Birds

    • Birds are animals that have feathers.
    • They are born out of hard-shelled eggs.

    Amphibians

    • Amphibians are animals that can live on land as well as underwater.
    • They can breathe and absorb water through their thin skin.

    Fish

    • Fish are animals that live in water and have gills instead of lungs.
    • They have scales and fins on their body.

    Reptiles

    • Reptiles are cold-blooded animals with scaly skin.
    • Almost all reptiles lay eggs.
