What is a Computer?
Nowadays, in most modern societies, almost everybody has an idea about what a computer

is. We depend on computers in every aspect of our lives whether we know how to use one or

not. But does everyone really know how a computer works inside?

A computer is an electronic machine which processes data and provides the results of the

processing as information. There are three basic steps in the computing process. The first

one is input, which consists of feeding data into the computer's memory. Then comes the

processing: the program is run and the computer processes the data by performing a set of

instructions. The third and final step is the output furnished by the computer, which allows the

user to see the results either in printed form or on the screen.

The world of computers has created a specific language of its own. English words such as

software and hardware are used worldwide and have been borrowed by many different

languages. Software is information in the form of data and programs, and hardware refers to

the electronic and mechanical parts that make up a computer system.

Despite the constant presence of computers in most modern societies, it is a great mistake to

believe that everybody in the world is computer-literate, is familiar with computers and knows

how to use them properly. In some contemporary societies, many people still have no idea

about the existence of computers, and even in the so-called developed countries, there are

lots of people do not know or do not care about what a computer is.



Preposições de Lugar In / At / On

IN
A preposição in é usada para indicar posição em relação a espaços definidos - espaços com
"limites" (lados, bordas, etc.), tais como um país, uma cidade, um edifício, um aposento, uma
caixa, etc.

Russia is the biggest country in the world. (não *of the world)
A Rússia é o maior país do mundo,
There's somebody in the bathroom.
Há alguém no banheiro.
(In também indica movimento)

AT
A preposição at é usada com referência a edifícios, instituições públicas, e outros lugares,

um ponto de ônibus, uma estação de trem.

He's waiting at the bus stop.
Ele está esperando no ponto de ônibus.
There's somebody at the door.
Há alguém à porta.
(At indica posição, e não movimento. Para indicar movimento, usa-se to).

ON
A preposição on indica posição em relação a superfícies, O significado mais exato de on é
"em contato com (uma superfície)", como, por exemplo, o chão, uma parede, o teto, uma
prateleira, etc.

He's sitting on a towel on the beach.
Ele está sentado numa (sobre uma/em cima de uma)
toalha na praia.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is the branch of computer science that deals with using computers to

simulate human thinking. It is concerned with building computer programs that can solve

problems creatively, rather that simply working through the steps of a solution designed by

the programmer.

One of the main problems of artificial intelligence (AI) is how to represent knowledge in the

computer in a form such that it can be used rather than merely reproduced. A computer that

tells you the call number of a library book is not displaying artificial intelligence; it is merely

echoing back what was put into it. Artificial intelligence would come into play if the computer

used its knowledge base to make generalizations about the library’s holdings or construct

bibliographies on selected subjects.

The ENIAC is created

The Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, the ENIAC, was constructed between

1943 and 1946 at the University of Pennsylvania. It was the most powerful computer up to

that point but was the largest as well, weighing over 30 tons. Additionally it required that

almost 50 vacuum tubes be replaced everyday. While operating the ENIAC used almost 150

kilowatts of power, which is equivalent to what many small towns used at that time. The

ENIAC was important because of its power, but its many drawbacks made it unrealistic for

common use. One of these drawbacks was that it had no memory. The same researchers

who created the ENIAC then set out to create a similar computer that allowed for the storing

of programs.

BASIC is created

BASIC, Beginners All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Language, was created by Tom Kurtz

and John Kemeny, both professors at Dartmouth. BASIC remained in use for the next twenty

five years. One unique quality of basic was that it was developed to be easier to understand

than previous computer languages. Even someone not familiar with the language could

understand some of what was happening by simply looking at the code. This made

programming easier for the mainstream and made it more like speaking commands in plain

English. BASIC was the beginning of intuitive programming.

Living in the Future

Our life in the future will be changed forever by multimedia. The way we live, work, and play

will be totally different from what it is now. Bert C. Roberts, Jr. states in on article that soon

we will probably be answering our televisions and watching our phones. Our interactive TVs

will actually be some combination of television, telephone, and computer through which we

will have access to shopping, movies, and other types of information whenever we want

them. Videophones will enable us to communicate instantly in voice, picture and text with

loved ones or business associates anywhere in the world. We will probably be talking to

intelligent devices. At a voice command, cars will be able to guide us to pre-programmed

destinations such as movies, theaters, and restaurants. And once we arrive at our

destination, ours cars will even be able to park themselves. We will use our personal

electronics mail box to send and receive letters through our telephone lines – all without

paper. The classrooms of the future will have audio, video and interactive multimedia, and

kids will be watching, listening to and talking to on-line encyclopedias. Education will be

revolutionized by distance learning - the use of video teleconferencing when the teacher and

student are in different places. Multimedia will make it easier to work at home – to

telecommute - which means less traffic and less air pollution. In this multimedia era, life will

be a little easies, traffic a little lighter, the environment a little healthier, and everything more

accessible.

Although many of Roberts` predictions are still likely to happen some of them are already

present reality. At the rate technology is evolving nowadays, it is difficult for the future not to

become an instant present the moment it is imagined and conceived by contemporary

scientists.

Reading: Computing Languages

C++ was developed from the C language. It was designed as a systems programming

language with features that make it easy to control the computer hardware efficiently. It was

used to produce the Microsoft Windows operating system. It is portable, and programs

written in C++ can be easily adapted for use on many different types of systems.

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. It is a page description language used for

creating websites. HTML uses a system of tags to mark page links and formatting. For

example, the tag <u> tells the program to start underlining a text. Although programs cannot

be created using HTML, small programs can be embedded in HTML code using a scripting

language like Java Script.

Java is a programming language originally designed for programming small electronic

devices such as mobile phones. It can run unchanged on any operating system that has a

Java Interpreter program. Java is used for writing programs for the World Wide Web.

Visual Basic is a programming environment, not simply a language. It uses the language

BASIC, a simple language developed to make it easy for people to learn how to program.

Visual Basic has predefined objects such as dialog boxes, buttons, and text boxes which can

be chosen from a toolbox and dragged across the screen using the mouse and dropped into

the required position. BASIC programming code is attached to form a complete program.

Visual Basic is used to write general purpose applications for the Windows operating system.



Basic and Creative Software

Considered the manager of the computer system, it comprises a set of program files, that

control all the hardware devices, such as monitor, keyboard, printer; and the software

resources, such as commands and data to and fro programs and applications.

A database is the electronic equivalent of an indexed file cabinet. It is a collection of

organized information contained in records that are made up of fields that contain a specific

item of information. The records are organized in files, in such a way that information can be

easily stored, organized and retrieved.

Originally designed to edit text documents, these programs have become sophisticated

incorporating several features of a publishing program. For example they can import

graphics, etc. Features such as Search/Replace allow users to find any string of letters in a

text. Automatic hyphen splits a word between two lines so that the text will fit better on the

page. Thus, processing is more than just typing.

This is the electronic equivalent of an accountant's handwritten worksheet with arranged in

rows and columns. The difference is not only the automation but also the flexibility of uses,

because even the simplest spreadsheet can be used as a data base and can produce visual

representations in the form of graphics, pie charts, etc.

Desktop publishing programs are meant to design, implement and publish books, flyers,

magazines and other printed pieces. They are, in fact, a combination of different tasks

including word processor, graphic and information design, printing technology and image

manipulation. They are also supported by many other applications, such as font creation and

type manipulation applications.

Breakaway Wanna feel the warm breeze
Kelly Clarkson Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Grew up in a small town Get onboard a fast train
And when the rain would fall down Travel on a jetplane
I'd just stare out my window Far away
Dreaming of what could be And break away
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray [CHORUS]

Trying hard to reach out Buildings with a hundred floors
But when I tried to speak out Swinging with revolving doors
Felt like no one could hear me Maybe I don’t know where they’ll take me
Wanted to belong here but
But something felt so wrong here Gotta keep movin on movin on
So I'd pray Fly away
I could break away Break away

[CHORUS] I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly. Though it’s not easy to tell you goodbye
I'll do what it takes till i touch the sky. I gotta take a risk, take a chance,
Make a wish, take a chance, Make a change, and break away.
Make a change, and break away. Out of the darkness and into the sun.
Out of the darkness and into the sun. But I won't forget the place I come from
But I won't forget all the ones that I love. I gotta take a risk, take a chance,
I'll take a risk, take a chance, Make a change, and break away
Make a change, and break away Breakaway
Break away
