what is a input device
a term for a physical piece of hardware that connects to a primary device, such as a computer, in order to provide user input. Input devices are generally a class of peripheral devices that connect to the primary device. Top examples include: Keyboards. Mouse devices
any hardware device used to send data from a computer to another device or user. Usually, most output peripherals are meant for human use, so they receive the processed data from the computer and transform it in the form of audio, video, or physical reproductions.
a panel of keys that operate a computer or typewriter.
a display device which allows the user to interact with a computer by touching areas on the screen
what is a output device
a town or city with a harbor where ships load or unload, especially one where customs officers are stationed.
a system or program that allows a user to edit text.
hardware device used to send data from a computer to another device or user. Usually, most output peripherals are meant for human use, so they receive the processed data from the computer and transform it in the form of audio, video, or physical reproductions.
An application, also referred to as an application program or application software, is a computer software package that performs a specific function directly for an end user or, in some cases, for another application. An application can be self-contained or a group of programs.
what is a port
a term for a physical piece of hardware that connects to a primary device, such as a computer, in order to provide user input. Input devices are generally a class of peripheral devices that connect to the primary device. Top examples include: Keyboards. Mouse devices
