Explanation: Input, Process, Output, Storage <br>
<p><strong>Functioning of a Computer</strong><br />Computer performs four basic functions which are as follows</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Input:</strong> Information or data that is entered into a computer is called input. It sends data and instructions to the Central Processing Unit (CPU).</li>
<li><strong>Processing:</strong> It is the sequence of actions taken on data to convert it into information which is meaningful to the user. It can be calculations, comparisons or decisions taken by the computer.</li>
<li><strong>Output:</strong> It makes processed data available to the user. It is mainly used to display the desired result to the user as per input instructions.</li>
<li><strong>Storage:</strong> It stores data and programs permanently. It is used to store information during the time of program execution and possible to get any type of information from it.</li>
</ul>
