1.
Input and output devices serve as interfaces between the user and the computer.
2. The
CPU processes the instructions and coordinates all operations, while the
memory stores the data temporarily.
Additional Knowledge:
Printers are classified as output devices, but the core functional components include only
one input and
one output device for basic computing.
