In the next video from Code.org, a designer and CEO will step through the process of typing input into a computer and rendering the output on the screen. After the video, we'll review each of the …

Let's solve some problems to better understand input and output devices.

Every semiconductor device is non-linear (diodes and transistors) and they are used every day by the billions. Engineers have figured out how to use non-linear devices, and you will, too, as you continue …

A desktop computer has RAM memory, as the running applications uses the RAM to store data temporarily. A desktop computer also has a CPU, input and output devices, and a hard drive …

For example, I helped create the Windows operating system that runs on most personal computers. The operating system is a program with special abilities that let it control the other software on the …

For example, let's say that I am a botanist trying to determine the ideal amount of sunlight to expose a new species of plant to. I would conduct an experiment exposing plants to different amounts of light …
