characteristics of a computer

High Speed

Computers process data in microseconds, nanoseconds, and picoseconds, executing millions of operations per second.

Clock Speed

Measured in GHz, representing the frequency at which a computer executes instructions.

Accuracy

Computers maintain absolute precision in output if the input is correct; errors result from incorrect data entry or faulty logic.

GIGO

Garbage In, Garbage Out; the concept that incorrect input will lead to incorrect output.

Diligence

Computers work tirelessly without fatigue and maintain performance over extended periods.

Versatility

The capability of computers to perform diverse tasks, such as graphic rendering and database management.

Storage Capacity

Refers to primary memory (RAM) for active tasks and secondary memory (HDD/SSD) for long-term storage.

Power of Remembrance

The ability of computers to retain and retrieve data indefinitely with high fidelity.

No IQ and No Feelings

Computers lack independent intelligence and emotions; they strictly follow binary logic.
