transforming raw data into useful information. The main
stages include:

1. Input: Collecting and entering data into the system
2. Processing: Performing operations on the data like
calculations or comparisons
3. Storage: Saving the processed data for future use.
4. Output: Presenting the processed data in a readable
format such as reports or graphs.

(c) State four benefits of the computer as a tool for
processing data:

(ii) Full duplex enables data to flow in both directions
simultaneously, like a telephone conversation where both
parties can talk and listen at the same time.
