Charles Babbage KH FRS was an English polymath. A mathematician, philosopher, inventor and mechanical engineer, Babbage originated the concept of a digital programmable computer. Babbage is considered by some to merit the title of "father of the computer".

Microsoft Windows is the most common computer system for desktops and laptops, holding a significant global market share. It is widely used due to its user-friendly interface and broad software compatibility.

RAM, or Random Access Memory, is the short-term memory your computer uses to store data for the applications you are currently using, allowing your processor to access it quickly

Software is anything that tells hardware what to do and how to do it, including computer programs and apps on your phone. Video games, photo editors, and web browsers are just a few examples. Hardware and software are different from each other, but they also need one another in order to function.

The CPU (Central Processing Unit) is the "brain" of the computer; it processes data and executes instructions.

RAM is memory that stores the data that you’re currently working with, but it’s volatile, meaning that as soon as it loses power, that data disappears. ROM refers to permanent memory. It’s non-volatile, so when it loses power, the data remains. This makes it perfect for things that don’t change, like the BIOS of your motherboard.

In programming, syntax refers to the set of rules that define the correct structure and arrangement of elements within a programming language. It dictates how statements, expressions, and commands must be written to be considered valid and understandable by a compiler or interpreter. Basically a drag and drop code box.
