Computer Workflow

The typical workflow of a computer involves input, processing, storage, and output.

Memory and Storage

A computer can remember a set of data and instructions to be executed through its memory.
The primary memory, also known as RAM, retains data temporarily while the computer is executing it.
Primary memory is costly, fast, and limited in size.
Secondary memory, on the other hand, is non-volatile, slower, and larger in size, and its characteristics include data being retained even when the power is off.
Examples of secondary memory devices include hard discs and compact discs (CDs).

Input and Processing

Input devices, such as keyboards, convert given data into machine-readable form while entering data into the computer.
The central processing unit (CPU) performs arithmetic and logical computations.

Programming

A set of step-by-step instructions to perform a given task, written in machine-understandable format, is referred to as a program.
