1 UNIT 1.1 Introduction to Computer System
2 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming UNIT 1.1 Introduction to Computer System Number System Computer Concepts Operating System – DOS Operating System – WINDOWS
3 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Computer Concepts COMPUTER Is an electronic device that can perform prescribed operation given to it. Computer System Hardware Is the computers physical components such as the keyboard, screen and printer Software Is the computer programs containing a set of instructions that tell the hardware what to do.
4 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Categories of Software Application software Includes programs written to accomplish as specific task (or application) such as word processor, spreadsheet or database program. System software Includes programs that are necessary for your computer to run. These are programs that direct hardware related tasks. For instance, operating systems.
5 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Basic Parts of a Computer Input Unit Computer accept coded information by means of input units, which is consists of devices capable of reading such data. Example: keyboard, mouse, scanner Memory Unit Sole function is to store programs and data. Classes of Memory devices: Primary Storage (main memory) Is a fast memory capable of operating at electronic speed, where programs & data are stores during execution. Examples: RAM (random access memory) Used to store volatile programs & data ROM (read-only memory) Is non-volatile memory Secondary Storage Used when a large amount of information have to be stores particularly if some of these data need not be accessed frequently. Example: disk ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) Execution of most operation with in the computer.
6 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming CU (Control Unit) Sends control signals to other units of the computer system. Coordinates the operation of the computer system to maintain its proper operation. Output Unit Is to return the processed result to the outside world. Examples: monitor, printer
7 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming UNIT 1.1 Introduction to Computer System Number System Computer Concepts Operating System – DOS Operating System – WINDOWS
8 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Operating System A collection of programs that supervises all the activities that take place within a computer.
9 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Disk Operating System (DOS) Four parts of DOS: System files Internal Commands / Programs External Commends / Programs DOS Utility Programs System Files command.com IBMBIO.com (IO.sys) IBMDOS.com (MSDOS.sys) Internal DOS Commands Reside in the memory as part of command.com Two parts of command.com Resident part Transient part External Commands Commands which need an external files to be loaded to memory for its execution. DOS must locate the command on disk and then loaded into computer memory. Precede the command name with directory path to the program file. DOS Utility Programs Programs used for specialized purpose.
10 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming BOOTING THE COMPUTER Booting, starting the computer Perform to program that reside the ROM POST (Power On Self Test) Check the existence of necessary peripheral devices of the computer Bootstrap Loader Short routine that loads necessary programs to boot DOS. DOS is the first program your computer run each time it starts. Bootable disk Is a system disk capable of starting DOS Ways computer can be reset/restart: Turn OFF the power switch then turn it ON again Press reset button Press Ctrl+Alt+Del keys at the same time
11 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming DOS Common Internal Commands Clearing the screen Syntax: CLS Changing drive Syntax: target_drive: Display the version of DOS Syntax: VER Display the current date Syntax: DATE or DATE mm-dd-yy Display current time Syntax: TIME or TIME hh:mm:ss Modifies the DOS prompt Syntax: A:> PROMPT desired_prompt Displays files inside the disk Syntax: DIR or DIR/option
12 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming DOS Common Internal Commands Change the filename of the existing file Syntax: REN old_name new_name Copies files content to another file / disk Syntax: COPY source_file target_file Syntax: A:> COPY C: filename B: Creating a file Syntax: COPYCON target_file Display content of a text file Syntax: TYPE target_file Delete file(s) from the disk Syntax: DEL target_file Help on DOS command options, syntax format Synatax: DOS_command/? Example: DIR/?, COPY/?
13 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming Working with group of files WILDCARD characters (* and ?), help select a group of files Replaces the character with the name of all matching files The Asterisk Wildcard (*) Perform file operation s on a group of files by specifying dont care character positions within the filename or extension The Question Mark Wildcard (?) Directs DOS to ignore the character in the position containing the wildcard. Represent only one character position. Redirection (>) To redirect the output from the terminal screen to a file or to a printer. Example: A:> DIR > files.dat A:> TYPE files.dat > prn Creating Batch Files Batch File Is a file that contains the name of one or more DOS commands. Uses BAT extension Autoexec.bat Most useful batch file Unique from all other batch files because each time the computer starts, DOS automatically locates and executes the command in this special file.
14 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming DOS Common External Commands Prepares a disk for use by DOS Creates File Allocation Table (FAT) Contains info to keep track of the used, unused and bad sector External file: format.com Syntax: FORMAT disk_drive: Recover the data of the newly formatted disk External file: unformat.com Syntax: UNFORMAT disk_drive: Used to make copies of a disk External file: diskcopy.com Syntax: DISKCOPY source_drive: target_drive: Copies files, advance form of COPY command External file: xcopy.com Syntax: XCOPY source_drive: target_drive: /option
15 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming DOS Common External Commands Copies system ile from one disk to another External file: sys.com Syntax: SYS target_drive: Creates or change the volume label of disk External file: label.exe Syntax: LABEL target_drive: volume_name Modifies the attribute of a file External file: attribute.exe Syntax: ATTRIB option target_file Collects a previous DOS commands External file: doskey.com Syntax: DOSKEY Displays all directories present on your disk External file: tree.com Syntax: TREE
16 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming DOS Directories Root directory (\) Internal commands in working with directories: MD – make directory CD – change directory CD\ – returns to root directory CD.. – returns the user to parent RD – remove directory Before using RD command: Erase all content of the directory (files & subdirectories) Remove all directory & its parent or at a much higher directory

18 COM E 211: Basic Computer Programming INTRODUCTION TO WINDOWS Windows is a graphical operating system. Users communicate with the computer by choosing items or menu options & small graphical images instead of typing hard-to- recall text commands such as were found in older operating system such as DOS. It is greatly made easy for users to use different software without having to learn new commands in a new environment or application.
