Computers are present everywhere, whether at school, banks, shops, railway stations, hospitals, or your own house, making our work easier and faster. A computer is an electronic device that manipulates information or data. It has the ability to store, retrieve, and process data. Modern computers can perform generic sets of operations known as programs. These programs enable computers to perform a wide range of tasks. A broad range of industrial and consumer products use computers as control systems. Simple special-purpose devices like microwave ovens and remote controls are included, as are factory devices like industrial robots and computer-aided design, as well as general-purpose devices like personal computers and mobile devices like smartphones. Computers power the Internet, which links hundreds of millions of other computers and users.



This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of computers. It talks extensively about the types of computers and their other applications and uses. The book aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects like getting started with computer, setting up of personal computers, and getting to know about windows. It also deals with understanding online shopping, social networking, and working with files and folders. It is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the theory and practice of the subject. For all those who are interested in this topic, this book can prove to be an essential guide. Such selected concepts that redefine this field have been presented in it.
