mporary definition of the computer is that it is an electronic device that receives, stores, manipulates, and communicates information . For those who are "out of this world" and can't comprehend the meaning, you could think of the computer as another tool. A tool like a pen, an arrow, a hammer, a knife and alike but the computer is a tool with a difference. Most tools require guidance and direction when using it, the computer, on the other hand, is self-directed. You don't have to tell the computer what to do very specifically because if you did, it will blow your mind. In other words, it is programmable, which means it can store a complex set of directions and execute them without human interventions. When we say computers, we are talking about the computers used at home and in the office. The computers I am talking about are the computers that need a keyboard, a monitor, a mouse and so many small things inside the "box like figure".
