A CPU, or central processing unit, is a hardware component and the central computing unit of a server. Servers and other smart devices convert data into digital signals and perform mathematical operations on them. The CPU is the main component that processes signals and makes computing possible. It acts as the brain of any computing device. It fetches instructions from memory, performs the necessary tasks, and sends the output to memory. Handles all types of computing tasks necessary for the operating system and applications to run

The mouse is part of your computer's peripherals and is the part of the computer that allows you to interact with the objects that appear on the screen, through a cursor or pointer that you will see on the monitor.

Typically, the mouse or mouse has two buttons: The left one, which is used to open, drag, select and execute functions. The right one, which allows you to access additional functions of the commands.

A printer is a computer output peripheral device that allows you to produce a permanent range of text or graphics from documents stored in an electronic format, printing them on physical media, usually paper, using ink cartridges or laser technology (with toner). Many printers are used as output peripherals, and are permanently attached to the computer by a cable. Other printers, called network printers, have an internal network interface (typically wireless or Ethernet cable), and that can serve as a device to print a paper document for any user on the network.

The computer monitor, also known as a screen, displays information from your computer such as images and text, which are generated thanks to a video card located inside the computer tower. Monitor or screen of a desktop computer. The function of the monitor is that you can interact with the computer, with the help of the mouse and keyboard. There are several types of monitors. Some are very big, like a box. These may have cathode ray tube (CRT) technology, which allows images to be displayed using a beam of cathode rays.

ROM is non-volatile memory, which means that information is permanently stored on a chip. This memory does not depend on an electrical current to store data. Instead, data is written to individual cells using binary code

RAM memory is responsible for collecting data from the programs that the device is processing when it is turned on. In other words, it is responsible for managing the use of programs, data and the information they provide, thus creating an immediate database.

In computing, a keyboard is an input device, partly inspired by the typewriter keyboard, that uses a system of stitches or margins, to act as mechanical levers or electronic switches that send all information to the computer or to the mobile phone. It has alphanumeric keys (letters and numbers), punctuation keys (period, comma, colon, among others) and special keys (which perform certain functions or are combined together to achieve a function and avoid the use of the mouse).
