Abstract


Describes briefly the components-Memory, Arithmetic Unit, and Control Unit, the input and output, the instruction, and computation process, of a computer. It is pointed out that the logical process of a computer in accomplishing its task is not very different from than that of a manual system, and that because of its high speed of performance, human intervention should be avoided when the computer is running.
