The history of computing
everything you need to know
Input devices
input devices are things for example a mouse, keyboard, joy stick and many other things here are some pictures of output devices:
a printer is a very good example because
output devices
A printer is a very good example because from the computer you cans send the document to the printer and the printer will print it for you and then you get the final product out in the end
processing
plus they are all inside a computer.
CPU
RAM

power supply
Network card
Graphics card
Mother board

binary code
binary code is used to make secret messages to each other
or for people that had to write a message that only some people can look at and understand.
Gottfried Leibniz was the person who invented binary code in 1679.
Alan Turing
he cracked the enigma machine.
here is a link to the full movie about how Alan Turing cracked the enigma code: the imitation game 2014 full movie (YouTube)
this is a very good YouTube video because it show hoe he has cracked the enigma code.
i really enjoyed it.

Networking
The things you need for making a network are: network cables such as a hub, routers, wireless network adapter and you will need a modem.
A computer network is a set of computers connected together for the purpose of sharing resources. The most common resource shared today is connection to the Internet. Other shared resources can include a printer or a file server.
Types of layouts
Disadvantages
STAR: Requires more cable length than any of the other layouts.
BUS: In this type of topology, all the nodes (computers as well as servers) are connected to the single cable (called bus).
Advantages
STAR: Network the best advantage is when there is a failure in cable then only one computer might get affected and not the entire network.
BUS: it works very well when you have a small network.
