👉 Computing involves a series of steps starting with input, where data or instructions are received from users or external sources. This data is then processed using algorithms, which are step-by-step procedures that manipulate the input to achieve a specific outcome. The processing often involves memory operations, such as storing and retrieving data, and can include calculations, logical operations, or pattern matching. Once the processing is complete, the result is typically output, presented back to the user in a readable format. Throughout these steps, computers rely on hardware components like processors, memory, and storage devices to execute tasks efficiently.
