    1.

    the first use of the word compute was first introduce in

    When was the word "computer" first used?


    The word "computer" was first recorded in 1613. And it was originally used to
    describe a human who performed the calculations. The definition of the
    computer remained the same until the end of the 19th century, when the
    industrial revolution gave way to machines whose main purpose was
    calculation.

    The first mechanical computer or automatic computing engine concept


    In 1822, Charles Babbage conceptualized and began developing the difference
    engine. It was considered the first automatic computing machine capable of
    calculating various sets of numbers and making hard copies of the results.

    Babbage received help from Ada Lovelace in the development of the Difference
    Engine, considered by many to be the first computer programmer for her work
    and notes on the Difference Engine. Unfortunately, due to funding, Babbage
    was never able to complete a full-scale working version of this machine.

    2. the instruction that computer can process are mainly executed

    How are the instructions executed by the computer? Instruction cycle sequence
    of actions Find the instruction in main memory. The value of the program
    counter is dumped onto the address bus. ... Decode the instruction. The
    instruction decoder interprets and implements the instruction. ... Execute the
    statement. ... Store or save results.

    3. the main memory of a computer considered volatile due to the capacity


    of storing information that information could be kept as long as
    RAM and ROM RAM is volatile memory that temporarily stores the files you
    are working on. ROM is non-volatile memory that permanently stores
    instructions for your computer.

    4. we can diferentiate input device fron output because input refers to

    In summary, we can say that an input device is anyone that sends information to
    the computer, while an output device reproduces or displays the results of such
    processing. Depending on the interaction that is established between the device
    and the PC, we can also find peripherals that fulfill both functions, that is, it can
    be both an input and an output device.

    5. the term computer system in relation with term computer alone makes
    its difference because

    A computer system is a basic, complete and functional computer or computer,


    which includes all the hardware and software necessary for it to be functional
    for a user. It is the system in charge of collecting the data, processing it and
    transmitting the information once it has been processed.
