Features of a computer

1.) Speed - It has a very speed of executing instruction.
CPU of a computer can perform more than 10 million
operations per second. All the instructions are executed in
accordance with a clock, whose frequency is measured in
Mhz. Normally, 3-4 cycles of this clock are required to
execute one instruction. Recent computers have a speed
of about 300 Mhz i.e one cycle of approx.3 X 10-9 Sec.
This means that it can execute an instruction in about 10
nanosec (10X 10 -8 Sec).
2.) Storage- The speed with which computers can
process large quantities of data/ Information, the size of
input so also the output is quite large. The size of
information to be stored further increases due to graphic
applications. All this information is to be stored in
auxiliary memory i.e Hard Disk fitted inside the computer.
Hard Disks now days have a storage capacity as large as
4 GB. The size of internal primary memory (RAM) has also
been increases a lot to about 64 MB.
3.)Accuracy -The accuracy of results computed by a
computer is consistently high. Due to digital techniques
the error is very small. The errors in computing may be
due to logical mistakes by a programmer or due to
inaccurate data.
4.) reliability- The reliability of results
processed by a computer is very high. If a program is
executed any number of times with the same set of data,
every time the results would be the same.
5.) versality - Computers are capable of
performing almost task provided the task can be reduced

to a series of logical steps so that an appropriate program
in a suitable language can be fed to a computer memory.
Ofcourse, the input and output devices should be capable
of performing the desired task. Because of these
capabilities, a number of processes can be automated
with the help of a computer.
