Basic Terms



Vacuum tube – an electronic device that controls the flow of electrons in a vacuum. It used as a switch, amplifier, or display screen in many older model radios, televisions, computers, etc.


Transistor – an electronic component that can be used as an amplifier or as a switch. It is used to control the flow of electricity in radios, televisions, computers, etc.


Integrated circuit (IC) – a small electronic circuit printed on a chip (usually made of silicon) that contains many its own circuit elements (e.g. transistors, diodes, resistors, etc.).


Microprocessor – an electronic component held on an integrated circuit that contains a computer’s central processing unit (CPU) and other associated circuits.


CPU (central processing unit) – It is often referred to as the brain or engine of a computer where most of the processing and operations take place (CPU is part of a microprocessor).


Magnetic drum – a cylinder coated with magnetic material, on which data and programs can be stored.

Magnetic core – uses arrays of small rings of magnetized material called cores to store information.


Machine language – a low-level programming language comprised of a collection of binary digits (ones and zeros) that the computer can read and understand.

Assembly language is like the machine language that a computer can understand, except that assembly language uses abbreviated words (e.g. ADD, SUB, DIV…) in place of numbers (0s and 1s).

Memory – a physical device that is used to store data, information and program in a computer.

Artificial intelligence (AI) – an area of computer science that deals with the simulation and creation of intelligent machines or intelligent behave in computers (they think, learn, work, and react like humans).

Answer:

The main features of the first generation are −

• Vacuum tube technology

•Unreliable

•Supported machine language only

•Very costly

•Generated a lot of heat

•Slow input and output devices

•Huge size

•Need of AC

•Non-portable

•Consumed a lot of electricity

Hope it helps :)

Please mark me brainliest as I am in desperate need of it .

Also I think the answer which the other person gave is wrong as A.I cannot be a feature of a first - generation computer . It is a feature of I think fifth generation computer but it is not a feature of first generation computer that I can guarantee you .
