Even the most modern computer is useless if it is missing just two essential parts hardware and software.
Hardware is all the parts you can see and touch-like the monitor (screen), keyboard and mouse. Software is all the
sets of instruction- programmes -that tell the computer how to process information to accomplish different tasks.
A computer is very important for human life. Lots of students now use computers for homework and project
