Question Discussion & Solution

Input Devices:

• Input devices are the component of the computer system that accepts incoming data and instructions.
• It converts them into a pattern of electrical signals in binary code that is understandable to a digital computer.

Output Devices:

• Output devices are the component of a computer system that converts the digitized signals into a form understandable to the user.
• The output devices are generally known as the reverse of input devices.
• Output devices also send data from one computer system to another.

Key Points

•  A Visual Display Unit (VDU) is also referred to as a Monitor and VDU (video display unit), a monitor is an output device that displays video images and text.
• A printer is an external hardware output device that takes the electronic data stored on a computer or other device and generates a hard copy.
• A floppy disk is a type of disk storage composed of a disk of thin and flexible magnetic storage medium, sealed in a rectangular plastic enclosure lined with fabric that removes dust particles. It can be both an input and output device.​

Important Points

The Central Processing Unit (CPU):

• The CPU is the brain of the computer.
• Sometimes referred to simply as the processor or central processor, the CPU is where most calculations take place.
• The CPU executes the programs and controls the operation of all the hardware.
• A central processing unit (CPU), also called a central processor, main processor, or just processor is the electronic circuitry that executes instructions comprising a computer program.
• The CPU performs basic arithmetic, logic, controlling, and input/output (I/O) operations specified by the instructions in the program.

​Thus, CPU is not a computer output device.

Mistake Points

• The question is "Which one is not a computer output device?"
• Floppy is both input and output.
• CPU is the only option that is not an output device.

Additional Information

The basic difference between Input and Output devices:

The correct answer is 22 February 2021.

• Under the vaccination program in Rajasthan, the first phase of Intensified Mission Indradhanush-3 started from 22 February 2021.

Key Points

• First phase of intensive mission Indradhanush-3:
  • Medical and Health Minister Dr. Raghu Sharma launched this special campaign of vaccination from Bhilwara district.
  • According to the instructions of the Union Health Ministry, this campaign will be conducted for 15 days in two phases and the related vaccines will be given free of cost to the children and pregnant women who are deprived of regular vaccination.
    • In the first phase, 24 districts of the state have been included. A total of 3,963 vaccination sessions will be conducted in these.
    • A target has been set to immunize 23,980 children from birth to 2 years of age and 6,268 pregnant women through the relevant vaccines.

The logic followed here is:-

The first two words are antonyms of each other.

'Always' is antonym of 'Never'.

Similarly,

The fourth word should be the antonym of the third word.

'Down' is antonym of 'Up'.

So, Never : Always :: Up : Down.

Hence, the correct answer is "Down".
