Get Smart Learn About Computers
Computers are everywhere. Have you noticed they are calling them smart devices? Everywhere you look, many things are smart devices, from smartphones, smart cars, smart homes, smart security systems, smart kitchens, smart bicycles and even smart glasses. What makes all these devices smart is that they either have a computer built inside of them or they communicate with a computer, and that is what makes them smart.
A computer is a complex device that can do anything that it is made and programmed to do, and this book will teach you about what a computer is, how it operates, and the vocabulary that comes with it that everybody is speaking. Once you learn what a computer is, we will dive into learning about all the cool ways people use computers.
Learn the terminology and vocabulary explained in this book, which will teach you about computers and make them easy to understand.
Terminology focuses on specialized terms within the computer field, while vocabulary encompasses all words in a language so you can best understand them.
The goal of this book is to keep it so simple that you can learn the basic terminology and how computers work. Once you understand the basics, then you can learn much more about a computer, and the different types of smart devices there are, and all the great things you can do with them.
