What is a computer? What is computing? Define this in your own words and then check your understanding with a dictionary. Have you ever thought about how many computers are in your home? Have a look here and then brainstorm a list of items that could be considered a 'computer.' Next, group the items in the list. Think about how and why you are grouping the items. Select one type of computer group that you feel you could not live without and why. Share your list with groupings and the one group you would not live without and your rationale. PLEASE HELP

Answer:

A computer is a machine that accepts data as input, processes that data using programs, and outputs the processed data as information. Many computers can store and retrieve information using hard drives. Computers can be connected together to form networks, allowing connected computers to communicate with each other.

Computing is any activity that uses computers to manage, process, and communicate information
