👉 Computing refers to the processes, systems, and technologies used to process information, store data, and perform calculations. Originally, the term encompassed a wide range of activities, from manual arithmetic using abacuses to complex digital computations. The term "computing" has evolved significantly, particularly with the advent of electronic computers in the mid-20th century. Now, it specifically denotes the use of digital devices and software to manipulate data, solve problems, and automate tasks. Modern computing involves a broad spectrum of activities, including programming, data analysis, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing, all centered around the efficient processing of information using hardware and software.
