This is computer age. Day to day activities of almost everyone is being influenced by the use of computer. In areas like science and technology, improvements cannot be achieved without computers.
The incredible speed of computer can be gauged from the fact that its speed is measured in terms of milliseconds, microseconds, nanoseconds or picoseconds i.e. one thousandth, one millionth, one billionth and one trillionth of a second respectively. In addition to its speed, computer also has got accuracy even though it must be remembered that if faulty instructions are provided for processing the data, faulty answer is given which is also called GIGO i.e. garbage in garbage out. Hence, if it is instructed correctly it's obvious that there no chance of getting incorrect answer. Computers are ideal machines for carrying out repetitive and voluminous work. In simple words they never get bored. Computers being machines are highly consistent. In a computer once recorded information is never forgotten. Furthermore, any information can be retrieved almost instantaneously.
