You totally have the wrong idea of a computer course. You will be doing stuff like this all year: public class Demo { public static void main(String[] args) { for(int n=0; n<=10; n++) System.out.println("Hello, even though I already said it "+n+" times!"); } } You make cool programs such as that. The best thing to do is download either eclipse or textpad (IDEs) beforehand and get used to programming with those. Get a java book at your local library and read the first five chapters. (Up until where you are very familiar with loops and arrays) YOU DO NOT HAVE TO KNOW HOW A COMPUTER WORKS YOU DO NOT HAVE TO USE COMMAND PROMPT (if you have the IDE)

A computer is made up of thousands of intricate parts that together create the complexity of the computer itself. Computers can have basic components or added components that enhance the capabilities of processing more, and performing a broader array of tasks. The basics of components though, are really all you need to know.

There are mainly two forms of computers that are manufactured. The laptop which is portable and can run on wireless internet connections, and the desktop which is not portable and is stationary placed. They are made up of the same basic components, and are more alike in the way that they store info and perform a various array of tasks.

All computers have a hard drive, a mother board, a keypad, monitor, and mouse.

• The hard drive is the fixture that stores information and all the programs that allow your computer to work effectively.• The mother board is similar to the hard drive in that it is the main computer component that handles the computers commands, power supply, and any other task menu that exists.• The keypad is how you type in information or search on the web. It is geared as a communication device in every aspect of a computer.• The monitor or screen of your computer allows you to view information, data, videos, and all the media that your computer holds.• The mouse allows you to direct your way through the screen, whether it be through the internet or clicking on programs, files, and locations you need to access.

These are the key components that drive the technological device we call a computer. They are what a computer needs to function properly, and to be conformed completely. Computer technology has expanded the world with the abilities to share, inform, and educate.
