Hello everyone , in this Blog we are going to learn and see all about types of computer . You can also watch my other blogs which are given below .
TYPES OF COMPUTER :-
Computer can be categorize by three ways .
- On the basis of data handling capabilities .
- On the basis of size .
- On the basis of purpose .
- Analog Computer
- Digital Computer
- Hybrid Computer
- Analog Computer :-
It is mainly used in science and engineering feild because there are lots of calculation required for measuring .
2. Digital Computer :-
There is a word "digit" which means numbers ,
Mainly , we can say , Digital computers are the computers which is design to perform calculations and logical operations at high speed . It accepts either raw data as input ( in form of digits ) or binary numbers (0 or 1 ) and then processed on it to get desired output .
Examples of digital cmputers :- Laptops , Desktops including smartphones , these all are digital computers .
3. Hybrid Computer :-
Hybrid computers are those computers which have the features of both analog computer and digital computer . simply means , it is as fast as analog computers are and have memory and acurracy as digital computers have . It accepts analog signals and convert them into digital form before processing .
Example :- A machine of petrol pump is a example of hybrid computer .
On the basis of size , Computer can be divided into 4 types .
- Micro Computer
- Mini Computer
- Mainframe Computer
- Super Computer
Micro computers are the general purpose computer which is design for individual use . They are mainly used in our usual daily work or in our personal work like an assignments , watching a movie , at office for office work etc. This is why it is also known as personal computer . it is smaller in size than other computers .
Mini Computer :-
Mini computers are the computers which have somehow more speed and memory from micro computer. It can have more CPU and which are costly from micro computers . It is mainly used in travel agencies or system , banks etc.
Mainframe Computer :-
These type of computers are mainly design to support hunreads or thousand of users simultanously . It also means they can execute lots of program simultanously . It has excellent performance and very long life with high speed and high memory space .It is mainly used in huge level systems like health care , feild of defence ,feild of education retail sector etc .
Super Computer :-
Super computers are the biggest and fastesr computers . They are design to process huge amount of data with superb speed like trilions of data are processed in seconds . It has large number of processors which are internally connected .
It is mainly used in scienctific and engineering level uses like weather forcasting , scientific simulations , nuclear energy research etc.
On the basis of purpose , it can be divided into 2 types .
- Special Purpose
- Genral purpose
These types of are computers are mainly design for some special type of work lile space science , weather science , agriculture work etc . The CPU of these computers are manufactured by according to our requirement fpr work .
general Purpose :-
General purpose computers are the computers which is used in our daily life work or simple works like letter writting , documentation work , printing etc . The cost of these type of computer's CPU is of low price and capabilities are also low .
