a) Vaccum Tubes and Magnetic Drum
b) Integrated Circuits
c) Magnetic Tape and Transistors
d) All of above
e) None of the above
(First Generation (1940-1956) Vacuum Tubes. The first computers used vacuum tubes for circuitry and magnetic drums for memory, and were often enormous, taking up entire rooms.)

Q2. Main storage is also called?
a) accumulator
b) control unit
c) register unit
d) memory
e) None of the above
(Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers.)

Q3. The most popular language for interactive use is?
a) COBOL
b) PASCAL
c) BASIC
d) FORTRAN
e) None of the above
(Basic is a very powerful language as a tool for the novice programmer. Basic allows for a wide range of applications, and it has many versions. However, as long as the emphasis is on the techniques of programming and problem solving, the specific syntax is easy to follow.)

Q4. Which of the following is not a term related to the World Wide Web?
a) Hyperlink
b) Hypertext
c) Website
d) Homepage
e) Keyboard
(A computer keyboard is one of the primary input devices used with a computer that looks similar to those found on electric typewriters, but with some additional keys. The modern keyboard is based on the typewriter, a typing device that was first developed and patented in 1868 by Christopher Sholes.)

Q5. Which of the following is another name for pre-programmed formula in Excel?
a) Range
b) Graph
c) Function
d) Cell
e) None of the above
(Worksheet formulas are built-in functions that are entered as part of a formula in a cell. These are the most basic functions used when learning Excel. VBA functions are built-in functions that are used in Excel's programming environment called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).)

Q6. The CPU is made up of two smaller components?
a) ALU and CU
b) ALU and RAM
c) RAM and ROM
d) RAM and CU
e) None of the above
(An arithmetic logic unit (ALU) is a digital circuit used to perform arithmetic and logic operations. It represents the fundamental building block of the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer. Modern CPUs contain very powerful and complex ALUs. In addition to ALUs, modern CPUs contain a control unit (CU).)
Q7. In which language is a source program written?

a) English
b) Symbolic
c) High-level
d) Machine
e) None of the above
(A high-level language is a programming language such as C, FORTRAN, or Pascal that enables a programmer to write programs that are more or less independent of a particular type of computer. Such languages are considered high-level because they are closer to human languages and further from machine languages.)

a) Terminal
b) Light pen
c) Digitizer
d) Mouse
e) None of the above
(Terminal is a term used to describe a group of hardware devices that commonly consists of a keyboard and a monitor that enables a user to communicate with the internal CPU or another network device or computer.)

a) Relational
b) Structural
c) Network
d) All of the above
e) None of the above
