In computing, memory refers to the computer hardware integrated circuits that store information for immediate use in a computer.
Most semiconductor memory is organized into memory cells or bistable flip-flops, each storing one bit (0 or 1).
C, an early systems programming language, was developed by Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson at Bell Labs between 1969 and 1973.
The computer that process both analog and digital is called Hybrid computer.
DPI [Dots Per Inch] is a measurement of output quality of printer resolution. It represents number of ink dots the printer can place in an area of one square inch. The lesser the DPI the less sharper the image and vice versa.
Therefore, a printer that may have 400 DPI, a printer that can print 400 x 400 per square inch or 1,60,000 dots per inch.
RAM storage capacity is measured in bytes, kilo bytes, mega bytes, giga bytes,...
A computer software are of two types. They are :
1. System software
2. Application software
Systems software includes the operating system and all the utilities that enable the computer to function.
Application software includes programs that do real work for users.
Hence, Operating system is an example of system software.
