    3. Various types of generation
    COMPUTER

    • A Computer is an electronic device that accepts data from the user, processes it, produces results,
    displays them to the users, and stores the results for future usage.
    • To process the data and convert into information, a computer is used.
    MAIN PARTS OF COMPUTER
    • HARDWARE: Computer hardware is what you can physically touch includes the computer case,
    monitor, keyboard, and mouse. It also includes all the parts inside the computer case, such as the
    hard disk drive, motherboard, video card, and many others.
    • SOFTWARE: The computer hardware itself is not capable of doing anything on its own. It has to
    be given explicit instruction’s to perform the specific task. Software is a collection of programs
    which utilize and enhance the capability of the hardware.
    GENERATIONS AND COMPUTER

    • There are Five Generations of computers:


    1. First Generation (1946-1955)
    2. Second Generation(1956-1965)
    3. Third Generation (1966-1975)
    4. Fourth Generation (1976-1985)
    5. Fifth Generation (1986-onward)
    FIRST GENERATION OF COMPUTER

    • The first generation of computers refers to the earliest electronic computers, which were
    developed in the 1940s and 1950s. These computers used vacuum tubes for circuitry and
    magnetic drums for memory. They were large, expensive, and consumed a lot of
    electricity. Examples include the ENIAC and UNIVAC I.
    SECOND AND THIRD GENERATION OF COMPUTER

    • The second generation of computers emerged in the late 1950s and lasted through the
    1960s. They were characterized by the use of transistors instead of vacuum tubes, which
    made them smaller, faster, cheaper, and more reliable. These computers also introduced
    magnetic core memory.
    • The third generation of computers appeared in the 1960s and continued into the 1970s.
    These computers were characterized by the use of integrated circuits (ICs), which further
    reduced the size and cost of computers while increasing their processing power. Third-
    generation computers also introduced high-level programming languages and operating
    systems.
    FOURTH AND FIFTH GENERATION OF COMPUTER

    • The fourth generation of computers began in the late 1970s and continued into the present day.
    These computers are characterized by the use of microprocessors, which allowed for even greater
    miniaturization, increased processing power, and lower cost. Fourth-generation computers also saw
    the development of personal computers (PCs), graphical user interfaces (GUIs), and networking
    technologies.
    • The fifth generation of computers is often associated with advancements in artificial intelligence
    (AI) and parallel processing. Although there's no universally agreed-upon definition, it generally
    refers to ongoing research and development efforts in areas like natural language processing, expert
    systems, neural networks, and parallel computing. These efforts aim to create machines capable of
    understanding, learning, and reasoning in ways that mimic human intelligence
