1. Data (ข้อมูล)

Data is raw facts or figures. It’s like the individual LEGO bricks before you build anything. It could be a list of numbers, names, or colors that don't mean much until you organize them.

2. Information (สารสนเทศ)

When you take Data and organize it so it makes sense, it becomes Information.

• Example: A list of temperatures is "Data." A weather report saying "It will rain today" is "Information."

3. Hardware (ฮาร์ดแวร์)

These are the physical parts of a computer that you can actually touch.

• Examples: The screen, the keyboard, the mouse, and the chips inside the box.

4. Software (ซอฟต์แวร์)

If Hardware is the body, Software is the brain. These are the programs and instructions that tell the computer what to do.

• Examples: Minecraft, YouTube, or the web browser you are using right now.

5. Input (การนำเข้า)

This is how you "talk" to a computer. It is the process of putting data into the system.

• Tools: You use a keyboard to type or a microphone to record your voice.

6. Output (การแสดงผล)

This is how the computer "talks" back to you after it finishes its work.

• Tools: The screen shows you a picture, or the speakers play a song.

7. Network (เครือข่าย)

A Network is when two or more computers are connected so they can share information. The Internet is the biggest network in the whole world!

8. Database (ฐานข้อมูล)

Think of this as a massive, super-organized digital filing cabinet. It’s a place where huge amounts of information are stored so they can be found quickly.

9. Algorithm (อัลกอริทึม)

An Algorithm is a step-by-step set of rules or instructions to solve a problem. It’s like a recipe for baking a cake—you have to follow the steps in order to get the right result.

10. Cybersecurity (ความมั่นคงปลอดภัยไซเบอร์)

This is the practice of protecting your information and computers from "digital thieves" or hackers. It’s like having a strong lock on your digital front door.
