Computers are electronic equipment which are made to assist in solving sophisticated problems and have also become a widely used multimedia appliance. But for the computer to perform a task it requires some information. This information is fed into the computer by the use of an input device (any equipment that is used to feed data into the computer). The info is then processed in the CPU (Central Processing Unit) after which the user obtains the expected results by the use of an output device (any equipment that is used to view or deliver the results). Input and out put devices are mostly connected to the CPU through various kinds of connections. All the such equiment is called peripherals. Other requirements are the perishables like ink and paper just to mention a few. All the underlined above are physical items and are generally called Hardware.
